BEEF AND PEPPER STIR-FRY



Beef and Pepper Stir-fry image

Beef and pepper stir-fry, seared over super high heat, is an easy, delicious weeknight dish. Add this beef and pepper stir fry to your weeknight rotation!

Provided by Bill

Categories     Beef

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 17

12 ounces flank steak ((sliced into thin strips))
¼ teaspoon baking soda ((optional tenderizer))
2 teaspoons soy sauce
½ teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons oil
3 cloves garlic ((sliced))
8 long hot green peppers ((de-seeded and julienned into 3-inch/8cm strips))
1 long hot red pepper ((de-seeded and julienned into 3-inch/8cm strips))
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon white pepper
¼ cup chicken stock ((optional))

Steps:

  • Add all the marinade ingredients to the beef in a bowl, mix well, and set aside for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  • When you're ready to cook, place a wok over high heat until it's almost smoking, then add the oil. Sear the beef until it's just browned but still a little rare. Turn off the heat while you transfer the beef to a separate bowl. Leave any oil/fat in the wok.
  • Heat the wok back up over medium-high heat and add the garlic and peppers. Stir-fry for 20 seconds, then spread the Shaoxing wine around the wok to de-glaze it.
  • Stir-fry for another 20 seconds and add the beef back to the wok along with any juices from the bowl. Add salt, sugar, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and white pepper. Turn the heat back up to high and stir-fry for another 1 to 2 minutes, or until the peppers turn darker.
  • If you like more sauce, add the chicken stock to further de-glaze the wok and reduce the liquid slightly. The cornstarch from the marinade will help thicken the sauce. Plate and serve immediately with rice.

CHINESE PEPPER STEAK



Chinese Pepper Steak image

A delicious meal, served with boiled white rice, that's easy and made from items that I've already got in my cupboards! My mother clipped this recipe from somewhere and it became a specialty of mine; however, I've been unable to find the original source.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound beef top sirloin steak
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
½ teaspoon ground ginger
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 red onion, cut into 1-inch squares
1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch squares
2 tomatoes, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Slice the steak into 1/2-inch thick slices across the grain.
  • Whisk together soy sauce, sugar, cornstarch, and ginger in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Place the steak slices into the marinade, and stir until well-coated.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat, and place 1/3 of the steak strips into the hot oil. Cook and stir until the beef is well-browned, about 3 minutes, and remove the beef from the wok to a bowl. Repeat twice more, with the remaining beef, and set the cooked beef aside.
  • Return all the cooked beef to the hot wok, and stir in the onion. Toss the beef and onion together until the onion begins to soften, about 2 minutes, then stir in the green pepper. Cook and stir the mixture until the pepper has turned bright green and started to become tender, about 2 minutes, then add the tomatoes, stir everything together, and serve.
