Preparation
Season sliced beef lightly with salt. Set aside while preparing vegetables.
Heat 1 Tbsp butter or tallow in a hot skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef in a single layer and sear for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Remove from pan and set aside.
Add remaining butter or tallow to the skillet. Add shallots and peppers and sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened but still slightly crisp.
Reduce heat to medium. Add garlic, ginger, crushed Szechuan peppercorns, and chili paste or flakes. Stir for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Return beef to the skillet. Add coconut aminos (if using) and toss everything together for 1–2 minutes until well coated and heated through.
Remove from heat and drizzle with olive oil. Garnish with scallions or sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot.
Speaking at FilFest 2010, Coach Glassman shares a simple way he evaluates the quality of a training facility: he asks about the cleanliness of the bathroom. The question isn’t really about sanitation, but about pride and attention to detail. While coaching skill and technical knowledge can be learned, genuine care for clients is harder to teach. A clean and well-maintained facility reflects a deeper commitment to excellence—when coaches truly care about their clients and their environment, the technical aspects of training tend to fall into place.
