There’s nothing not to like here. Crispy beef is great because it’s easy to prep ahead and fries in minutes. It’s best fried fresh, but if you’re short on time, fry ahead and keep it separate from the sauce, layered with paper towels. When ready to serve, warm the meat lightly in the oven and toss with heated sauce.

Hi Olivia! I'd suggest that you freeze the meat raw and fry it fresh from the freezer, but i think the whole dish will get a little mushy if you freeze it cooked and sauced. The truth of the matter is, I've never made it and frozen it, so if you try it and you're successful, let me know!!
