1 1/2 lb flank steak
1/2 t kosher salt, or more as needed
1/2 t freshly ground black pepper, or more as needed
6 oz fresh ginger root
12 scallions
4 cloves garlic
3 T neutral flavored oil
2 T fish sauce
2 t honey

Steps:

1. Cut the steak with the grain (lengthwise) into 3-inch wide sections, and then cut those against the grain (crosswise) into 1/2 inch thick slices. Season with salt and pepper. 2. Peel the ginger and cut into thin rounds. Trim the ends off the scallions and cut into 2-inch long pieces.. Mince the garlic. 3. Heat 1 T oil until shimmering in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add half the meat in a single layer; cook for 2-3 minutes total, turning once, until well browned on both sides. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat with another T of oil and the remaining meat. (You may want to deglaze the pan with some wine or vinegar here -- dump it when you are done) 4. Reduce the heat to medium; add the remaining T of oil to your now-empty skillet. Add the ginger and cook for 2 minutes, stirring, until lightly browned on some edges. Add the garlic and cook for 20 seconds, until fragrant. 5. Stir in the scallions, fish sauce and honey, and then return all the meat and juices to the pan. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens and the stir fry mixture is warmed through. 6. Serve with Jasmine rice
