Step 1
In a bowl, toss the 1 lb beef with 2 tbsp soy sauce and 2 minced garlic cloves. Let it sit while you prep the onion.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over high heat. Add the 1 sliced onion and stir-fry until slightly softened, about 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Step 3
Add the beef to the hot skillet in a single layer. Sear without stirring for 1-2 minutes until browned, then stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
Step 4
Return the onion to the skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp soy sauce, and toss everything together for 1 minute until well combined.
Step 5
Serve the beef over the 2 cups cooked rice, garnished with the 1 cup mint and lettuce leaves.
