• add the remaining sesame oil to a large skillet and heat.
• Meanwhile, place the beef into a bowl and pour the teriyaki sauce over it. mix it up to get it all covered.
• When the skillet is hot enough, add the minced garlic and saute for one minute before adding the beef. Cook the beef until it is to your liking. I allow the meat to cook for several minutes before I stir it. The water in the meat and the teriyaki sauce will start to cook off as steam. If you allow it to cook until all of the bubbles are gone the meat should be perfectly done.
• Serve the salad into 4 large bowls.
• Place 1/4 of the beef on top of each of the salads.
• Drizzle the dressing over the top of each salad using the entire small bowl.
