  • Cut whole pineapple in half, then hollow it out. Reserve 1/2 cup of pineapple chunks and 2 tbsp of pineapple juice and store or freeze the rest.
  • Cook rice according to your preference.
  • Cut beef in to chunks, then season with garlic powder, white pepper, soy sauce, pineapple juice, baking soda, cornstarch. Mix until well coated, then set aside.
  • In a small bowl combine oyster sauce, Sriracha, brown sugar, dark and light soy sauce, water or chicken broth and pineapple juice. Mix until well combined then set aside. In a mortar and pestle, mash garlic cloves and Thai chilis to create a paste.
  • Add oil to a large skillet or wok, over medium high heat. Shallow fry the steak bites for 3-5 minutes or until desired doneness. Remove from the pan, reduce heat then sautè Thai garlic paste until fragrant about 1 minute. Next, add in peppers and onions. Sautè for about 3 minutes moving the veggies around continuously with a spatula.
  • Add in the pineapple chunks and stir fry for an additional 2 minutes. Add back the beef, and pour in the sauce. Reduce heat, allow the sauce to thicken and toss until the beef and veggies are coated.
  • Add a drop of olive oil to a small bowl. Scoop rice into the bowl and press/pack it down. Take the pineapple or plate and flip the bowl of rice until it comes out in a molded uniform shape. Spoon on the beef, top with green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Enjoy!!
