3. Heat cast iron or other heavy skillet until scorching hot. Drizzle in sesame oil to coat the pan. When cooking, you want the beef to caramelize, so be sure not to crowd the pan and work in batches if you have to. Stir-fry beef until done, about 3 minutes or so, or until the beef has seared nicely. Serve over rice and garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
