I make this with beef or chicken. Both are delicious.

Time 1h5m

Number Of Ingredients 16

BEEF MARINADE
2 lb flank steak or sirloin (if using chicken 4-5 boneless skinless breast)
1/4 c soy sauce
2 Tbsp dry cooking sherry or chinese rice wine
2 tsp sesame oil
2 Tbsp cornstarch
PEPPERS WITH SAUCE
2 red bell pepper
2 green bell pepper
1 c water
1/4 c dry sherry or rice wine
1/2 c soy sauce
1/4 c sugar
8 clove garlic (chopped)
8 slice ginger (chopped)
5 Tbsp oil

Steps:

  • 1. Cut beef in thin slices across the grain. Mix in 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp sherry, 2 tsp sesame oil, and 2 tbsp cornstarch, adding the cornstarch last. Marinate for 30 mins.
  • 2. Remove seeds from the peppers and cut into thin strips, about 2 1/2 inches in length.
  • 3. In another bowl mix together 1 cup water, 1/4 cup sherry, 1/2 cup soy sauce, and 1/4 cup sugar.
  • 4. Add 4 tbsp oil to a preheated wok or skillet. Add garlic and ginger and stir-fry briefly until aromatic. Add the beef and stir-fry until it changes color. Remove and set aside.
  • 5. Wipe the wok or skillet with a paper towel. Add 1 tbsp oil. When the oil is hot, add the red and green peppers. Stir-fry briefly. Add the sauce and bring to a boil. Add the beef. Mix everything through and serve hot over cooked rice.
  • 6. I like my sauce a little thicker and before adding the beef I usually add a little slurry of cornstarch and water to thicken it. Then add beef.

I'm not a big fan of bell peppers, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try anyway. I'm glad I did! The peppers were actually really good.

This dish is a bit spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. I'll probably use less chili sauce next time.

I made a few changes to the recipe, but it still turned out great. I used ground turkey instead of beef and added some extra vegetables.
