If you’ve never had runza you have to try this Nebraska Runza Copycat Recipe!!! Of course, anyone from Nebraska should know this recipe.

If you don’t know what a Runza is, I suggest you either get on the next plane to Nebraska or make this recipe!

Comfort food at it’s best!

I just discovered them a few years ago and they are wonderful! Great comfort food.

This is the same recipe I use (lately I’ve been using Pillsbury hot roll mix for the bread).

One extra tip, to give it the nice crispy top. Beat an egg and brush it on top of each one before baking!

This Quickie Pepperoni Pizza for One comes in so handy. Perfect for a quick lunch! Easy to make because it is made with ingredients I normally have on hand.

I like to add a few strips of red or yellow bell peppers for color and extra flavor!

When I make the sauce, I usually quadruple it and keep the leftover sauce in the refrigerator to be used in subsequent days.

You can use turkey pepperoni, part-skim mozzarella and no-salt-added tomato sauce if you want.

This P. F. Chang’s Mongolian Beef recipe is nothing short of amazing. It is exactly the same as P.F. Chang’s, and it’s so easy you just can’t mess up!

The step of velveting the meat in the corn starch is the secret to a good stir fry, I think. It’s the sauce, however, that really makes this dish!

This copycat recipe is every bit as good as the original!

P. F. Chang's Mongolian Beef is one of my favorite dishes and this recipe makes it so easy!

Course: Main Course

Cuisine: Mongolian

Keyword: P. F. Chang's Mongolian Beef

Servings: 4

Calories: 395 kcal

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
• 1/2 teaspoon ginger minced
• 1 tablespoon garlic chopped
• 1/2 cup soy sauce
• 1/2 cup water
• 3/4 cup dark brown sugar
• vegetable oil for frying (about 1 cup)
• 1 lb flank steak
• 1/4 cup cornstarch
• 2 large green onions sliced on the diagonal into one-inch lengths

Instructions

1. Make the sauce by heating 2 tsp of vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over med/low heat. Don't get the oil too hot.
2. Add ginger and garlic to the pan and quickly add the soy sauce and water before the garlic scorches.
3. Dissolve the brown sugar in the sauce, then raise the heat to about medium and boil the sauce for 2-3 minutes or until the sauce thickens. Remove it from the heat.
4. Slice the flank steak against the grain into 1/4" thick bite-size slices (Tilt the blade of your knife at about a forty-five degrees angle to the top of the steak so that you get wider cuts).
5. Dip the steak pieces into the cornstarch to apply a very thin dusting to both sides of each piece of beef. Let the beef sit for about 10 minutes so that the cornstarch sticks.
6. As the beef sits, heat up one cup of oil in a wok (you may also use a skillet for this step as long as the beef will be mostly covered with oil). Heat the oil over medium heat until it's nice and hot, but not smoking.
7. Add the beef to the oil and saute for just two minutes, or until the beef just begins to darken on the edges. You don't need a thorough cooking here since the beef is going to go back on the heat later.
8. Stir the meat around a little so that it cooks evenly.
9. After a couple of minutes, use a large slotted spoon to take the meat out and onto paper towels, then pour the oil out of the wok or skillet.
10. Put the pan back over the heat, dump the meat back into it and simmer for one minute. Add the sauce, cook for one minute while stirring, then add all the green onions.
11. Cook for one more minute, then remove the beef and onions with tongs or a slotted spoon to a serving plate.
12. Leave the excess sauce behind in the pan.

Enjoy!
