Step 1
Divide cooked rice between two bowls and keep warm.
Step 2
Slice the onion into 1/4-inch-thick half-moons.

In the same skillet, add onion and sauté until softened and edges caramelize, ~3 minutes.
Step 5
Return beef to skillet. Pour in soy sauce and mirin; toss until beef is coated and liquid reduces to a glaze, ~1 minute.
