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.

BLACK PEPPER BEEF AND CABBAGE STIR-FRY



Black Pepper Beef and Cabbage Stir-Fry image

Coarsely crushed black peppercorns star in this quick weeknight dish, which is built primarily from pantry staples. Don't be shy about adding the entire tablespoon of pepper, as it balances out the richness of the beef and adds a lightly spicy bite to the dish. A quick rub of garlic, brown sugar, salt, pepper and cornstarch seasons the beef; the cornstarch helps tenderize the beef and later imparts a silky texture to the sauce. Feel free to marinate the beef up to 8 hours ahead and cook when you're ready. If leftovers remain, tuck them into a crunchy baguette or roll them into a wrap.

Categories     dinner, quick, weeknight, steaks and chops, vegetables, main course

Time 20m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns, coarsely crushed with the bottom of a cup or pan
3 garlic cloves, grated
2 teaspoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
Kosher salt
3/4 pound sirloin steak, thinly sliced crosswise
3 tablespoons sunflower oil or other neutral oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 head small green cabbage (about 8 ounces), thinly sliced
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds, crushed with your fingertips
2 scallions, thinly sliced
Cooked rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Add peppercorns, garlic, brown sugar, cornstarch and 1 teaspoon salt to a medium bowl and stir to combine. Add sliced steak and toss to coat.
  • Heat the oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add steak and cook, stirring frequently, until some of the edges are lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add soy sauce and toss beef to coat, about 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer beef to a bowl or plate.
  • Add cabbage to skillet, spread in an even layer and let cook, undisturbed, for 1 minute so that some pieces caramelize in the pan. Toss and cook cabbage, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Stir in vinegar and season with salt.
  • Add steak and any juices back to the skillet, and stir until well combined with the cabbage and warmed through, about 1 minute. Top with toasted sesame seeds and scallions; serve with rice.

BLACK PEPPER STIR-FRIED TOFU AND ASPARAGUS



Black Pepper Stir-Fried Tofu and Asparagus image

This fast, one-skillet stir-fry dinner combines vibrant spring vegetables with hearty tofu in a rich and spicy black-pepper sauce. (Use freshly ground pepper, if possible, for the ideal combination of flavor and heat.) The tofu is simmered in the fragrant sauce, which is spiked with aromatic garlic and ginger until it has absorbed all of the flavors and is nicely glazed. This recipe is perfect for using up that pencil-thin asparagus, which cooks quickly and toes the line between crisp and tender, while sweet snap peas balance out the assertive sauce. The dish can be served over baby spinach or in lettuce cups instead of with rice for a satisfying salad.

Provided by Kay Chun

Categories     dinner, quick, weekday, one pot, main course

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons turbinado or light brown sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce or a vegan alternative
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning
1 pound firm tofu, cut into ½-inch cubes
Kosher salt
2 tablespoons neutral oil, such as safflower or canola
1 large shallot, finely chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon minced peeled ginger
1 pound pencil-thin asparagus, woody ends trimmed, cut into thirds
4 ounces snap peas, thinly sliced on the diagonal
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1/4 cup coarsely chopped cilantro
Steamed short-grain brown or white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon black pepper and 2 tablespoons of water. In a large nonstick skillet, combine tofu and half of the black pepper sauce, and season with salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce has thickened and nicely coats the tofu, about 5 minutes. Slide glazed tofu and any sauce out onto a rimmed plate.
  • Wipe or rinse out the skillet and heat oil over medium. Add shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 2 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add asparagus and snap peas, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Add scallions, the remaining black pepper sauce and the tofu, and cook, stirring, until vegetables are evenly coated in the sauce. Stir in cilantro, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
  • Divide tofu and vegetables among plates and spoon over any remaining pan sauce. Serve with rice.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use high-quality black pepper. Freshly ground peppercorns will give you the most intense flavor.
  • If you don't have Shaoxing wine, you can substitute dry sherry or Chinese rice wine.
  • If you don't have oyster sauce, you can substitute soy sauce or hoisin sauce.
  • To save time, you can use pre-cut beef and asparagus.
  • Be sure to heat your wok or skillet over high heat before adding the oil. This will help to prevent the beef and asparagus from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet. Cook the beef and asparagus in batches if necessary.
  • Stir-fry the beef and asparagus quickly until they are just cooked through. Overcooking will make the beef tough and the asparagus mushy.
  • Serve the black pepper beef and asparagus stir-fry immediately over rice or noodles.

Conclusion:

Black pepper beef and asparagus stir-fry is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The combination of black pepper, Shaoxing wine, and oyster sauce creates a savory and slightly spicy sauce that coats the tender beef and asparagus. This dish is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
