Chinese Beef and Scallion Breakfast Wrap

August 9, 2023

Start your day with a flavorful, savory twist on your usual breakfast with a Chinese Beef and Scallion Breakfast Wrap. This delicious wrap brings together tender beef, fragrant scallions, and a touch of soy sauce for a satisfying breakfast that’s far from ordinary. If you’re looking to break free from the usual eggs and toast, this wrap delivers an exciting, savory alternative that’s perfect for those who enjoy bold flavors from the very first bite.

The star of this wrap is the thinly sliced beef, typically marinated in a combination of soy sauce, garlic, and a hint of sugar to create a rich, umami-packed flavor. The beef is then sautéed until tender, soaking up the flavors of the marinade. Paired with freshly chopped scallions, which add a fresh and slightly pungent bite, the result is a flavorful filling that’s both comforting and energizing.

Wrapped in a soft, warm tortilla, this breakfast wrap is easy to hold and eat, making it perfect for busy mornings when you’re on the go. The savory beef and scallions are balanced by the soft texture of the wrap, while a drizzle of hoisin or chili sauce can add an extra layer of depth and spice if you like a little heat in the morning.

What makes this breakfast wrap so versatile is how easily it can be adjusted to your taste. You can add vegetables like bell peppers or mushrooms for extra crunch and nutrition, or toss in some scrambled eggs if you prefer a more traditional breakfast component. A sprinkle of sesame seeds or a dash of black pepper adds an extra touch of flavor.

The Chinese Beef and Scallion Breakfast Wrap is perfect for anyone who enjoys a hearty, savory breakfast that’s packed with flavor and doesn’t require much prep time. It’s a great way to enjoy the comforting flavors of Chinese-inspired cuisine in a convenient, portable form.

    I’m no chef but cooking beef is hard! I’m glad I gave this a shot though, kids ate it all!

    This is NOT how you make a breakfast wrap! It should have bacon! 1 star.

  4. 4 stars
    Just wanted to say that I made this with chicken instead of beef and it turned out great! You can really use anything, I guess.

    1. User avatar Dwarven Centurion says:

      2 stars
      But like, isn’t chicken not even close to beef? 😕 Just stick to the recipe, people!

    2. User avatar Feral Falmer says:

      That’s awesome! Chicken sounds like a tasty substitute. I might try it too.

  5. User avatar beula.johnston1993 says:

    I tried this and it was okay but too salty for my liking. Maybe next time I’ll use less soy sauce.

  6. User avatar Yooden Vranx says:

    5 stars
    This recipe is amazing! The flavors are out of this world! I added some garlic and it was even better!

    Too salty! I used low sodium soy sauce and still found it overwhelming.

    1. User avatar verline.mclaughlin says:

      4 stars
      I didn’t find it salty at all! Maybe try reducing the soy sauce a bit next time? It might help.

    2. User avatar Michael83 says:

      3 stars
      So salty? I used regular soy sauce and it was fine. Are you sure you measured right?

  8. User avatar ShanksOnePiece says:

    2 stars
    I tried it but my beef came out tough. Maybe I cooked it too long? Not sure, but wasn’t a fan.

    1. 4 stars
      Tough beef can happen if you cook it too long or at too high heat. Maybe try lowering the heat next time! Don’t give up!

  9. User avatar edison.donnelly says:

    Hold up, not even sure this is breakfast food. What about pancakes?!!

  10. 5 stars
    This wrap was amazing! The beef was so tender and the flavors just popped. Definitely making this again! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

    1. 3 stars
      Mm, sounds good but I don’t think the beef would be that tender if you cook it for long. Are you sure about that?

    Can you use chicken instead of beef? I’m not a beef person. 🤔

    1. User avatar elvie.koss32 says:

      Yes, you can definitely use chicken! It’ll taste different but still yummy. 😊

  17. User avatar Michael83 says:

    Tastes kinda good, but the instructions confuzzled me a bit. Didn’t know when to add the scallions. Still edible tho!

  18. User avatar santana.hagenes1999 says:

    Eww, this looks bad. I am not eating scallions ever again. ⭐

    1. User avatar luciana.yost42 says:

      Honestly, I don’t like scallions either. They can be way too strong. Maybe try some other veggies?

    2. User avatar marica.mertz43 says:

      I think it looks yummy! Scallions are so tasty in beef dishes. Give it another try! 😊

  19. User avatar douglas.jakubowski37 says:

    This is a breakfast wrap? Isn’t beef more for lunch? Confused but I tried it and it was fine. ⭐⭐⭐

    Don’t forget to salt the eggs!! They can be kinda bland otherwise. Just a tip.

  22. User avatar Lacie Schowalter says:

    I’m not a good cook, but this was super easy to follow! Even I couldn’t mess it up. Didn’t have scallions tho, used onions instead.

    1. User avatar ruthanne.dooley says:

      3 stars
      But wait, are the scallions actually necessary for the flavor? I’ve always thought they were just for looks.

    2. User avatar toney.dibbert says:

      5 stars
      Glad to hear you found it easy! Substituting onions sounds like a good idea too. I’ll try that next time! 🥳

    I followed the recipe step-by-step but it didn’t come out right. The beef was tough. Any tips?

    1. User avatar audry.feeney1980 says:

      3 stars
      Nah, sometimes beef just doesn’t cooperate. You could try marinating it longer or use a different cut.

    2. User avatar kaylee.brown49 says:

      4 stars
      Maybe the beef was overcooked? It cooks really fast. Try a lower heat next time!

  28. User avatar Ms. Rodrigo Schoen says:

    Great recipe!! I swapped the beef for chicken, still works out fine! Cheap eats!

    No offense but this is just a fancy burrito, right? 😅

    1. User avatar alphonso.little says:

      3 stars
      I mean, it kinda is. Just call it something fancy and it’s a new dish! 🤷‍♂️

    2. User avatar hugh.goyette28 says:

      4 stars
      Haha, I can see how it looks that way! But it’s got a unique flavor that’s so different from a burrito. You should give it a try! 😊

  32. User avatar liberal.hero says:

    2 stars
    I dunno, maybe I did somethin wrong but the beef was kinda tough. Not sure if I’m a fan.

  33. 3 stars
    It was okay, but I think it needs some more veggies. Maybe add bell peppers or something? Just my two cents.

    1. 5 stars
      Totally agree! Some bell peppers would add a great crunch and color. 😊

  34. 5 stars
    I made this for breakfast and it was amazing! The beef and eggs together are just perfect. Definitely a 5-star recipe!

    1. 5 stars
      That sounds delicious! I’ve been looking for a solid breakfast recipe and this might be it. I love beef for breakfast. Thanks for sharing!

      I dunno, beef for breakfast? Seems kinda weird to me. Aren’t eggs and toast enough? But glad it worked for you!

  35. User avatar suspiciousCommentator says:

    Just OK. It tasted kinda bland. I added hot sauce and it helped.

  37. User avatar Rigoberto Beer says:

    I don’t know, it was okay but I thought it would be more flavorful. Maybe I needed more sauce? ⭐⭐⭐

    1. User avatar moises.ondricka37 says:

      4 stars
      I think you should definitely try adding more soy sauce or even some garlic! That could really kick up the flavor. 😊

    2. User avatar aura.goldner2006 says:

      Eh, I’ve made this before and it was fine. Maybe your ingredients weren’t fresh? 🤷‍♂️

    I tried with chicken instead of beef. Still amazing!

    1. User avatar leanne.beer44 says:

      Really? I thought beef was the only way to go for this recipe. Chicken sounds weird…

    2. 5 stars
      That’s great to hear! Chicken can be such a nice alternative. I’m going to try your version next time!

  39. User avatar suspiciousCommentator says:

    1. User avatar Josiah Blanda says:

      5 stars
      Yeah, chicken would work fine! Just make sure to cook it well.👍

    2. User avatar marquis.cruickshank70 says:

      I dunno, but chicken in a wrap just sounds wrong. Beef is the best!

  40. User avatar scott.raynor1963 says:

    5 stars
    Absolutely loved it! My kids finished their plates in no time. Will definitely make this again!

  41. 3 stars
    Not bad but I think it could use more seasoning. Maybe some garlic? 😕

  42. User avatar reynalda.rutherford19 says:

    I found the recipe a bit confusing. What is oyster sauce???

    1. User avatar dani.bosco83 says:

      3 stars
      Honestly, I never heard of oyster sauce before either! But you can try soy sauce instead if you’re unsure.

    2. User avatar ismael.champlin1991 says:

      4 stars
      Oyster sauce is a thick, dark sauce made from oysters! It’s yummy in stir-fries. Don’t worry, you’ll get the hang of it!

  43. 2 stars
    Eh, not my favorite. It felt kinda dry to me. 🤷‍♂️

  44. 5 stars
    Delicious wrap!! Might even try it with chicken next time. Really, really good!

  46. User avatar monserrate.turcotte says:

    Yeah…nah. Not for me. Tried it and it just didn’t taste right. Maybe it was the oyster sauce?

    Too many steps, can’t we just throw it in the microwave? Ain’t nobody got time for this!

    Sounds interesting, but isn’t it kinda weird to eat wraps for breakfast?

    This wrap is amazing! I had it for breakfast and can’t stop thinking about it!

    1. User avatar terry.trantow says:

      Really? I thought it was a bit too salty for breakfast. Maybe I’m just not used to savory in the morning.

    2. User avatar Piter De Vries says:

    Who puts eggs in a wrap? Sounds weird but I guess it works? I’ll stick to my omelettes.

    1. User avatar odell.konopelski51 says:

      I thought the same at first! But eggs in a wrap can be delicious! You should give it a try sometime.

    2. 2 stars
      I dunno, eggs in a wrap sounds kinda off. Omelettes are just better, right? But maybe I’m missing out…
