Categories     Main Course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 pound sirloin (top round steak, or flank steak)
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
6 tablespoons water (divided)
6 ounces long noodles such as whole grain spaghetti (or whole grain fettuccine, soba noodles, or udon noodles)
1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce (plus additional to taste)
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
4 cloves garlic (minced or grated (about 1 heaping tablespoon))
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes plus additional to taste
1 tablespoon canola oil (or peanut or grapeseed oil)
2 medium carrots (peeled and cut into thin coins)
1 head broccoli (cut into small florets (about 3 cups), or 3 cups thinly sliced cabbage)
1 red bell pepper cored and thinly sliced
1 8-ounce can sliced water chestnuts, drained
4 green onions thinly sliced (divided)
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil (optional)

Steps:

  • For easier slicing, place the beef in the freezer for 15 minutes to firm up. Cut the beef across the grain into very thin (1/4-inch or smaller) slices. Cut any long slices in half cross wise (each strip should be around 3 inches or so long).
  • Place the beef in a medium bowl. In a small bowl, stir together the baking soda and 2 tablespoons of the water. Pour over the beef and toss to coat. Let sit 5 minutes (this helps to tenderize it).
  • Meanwhile, in a large pot of salted water, cook the noodles just until al dente. Drain and rinse under cool water. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl or larger liquid measuring cup, stir together the soy sauce, hoisin, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Keep handy near the stove.
  • In a wok or large, nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium high. Add the beef and cook until crisp on the outside but still pink on the inside, about 3 minutes. The beef will give off liquid, which is fine. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the sauce and let cook 30 seconds. With a large spoon, scoop the beef onto a plate (any cooking juices left behind will cook away).
  • Add the carrots, broccoli, and bell pepper. Cook until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) of water and let the vegetables steam until the broccoli turns bright green and most of the liquid has cooked away, about 2 minutes more.
  • Stir in the water chestnuts, half of the green onions, and 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce mixture and let cook 30 additional seconds.
  • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the noodles and beef and pour the remaining soy sauce mixture over the top. With tongs, stir and toss until the noodles are heated through.
  • Drizzle the sesame oil over the top (if using) and sprinkle on the remaining green onion. Toss to combine. Enjoy!

BEEF LO MEIN



Beef Lo Mein image

This home-cooked Beef Lo Mein recipe tastes just like what you'd get at a Chinese takeout restaurant (or better, because it uses more vegetables than your typical takeout). It's also easy to make. If you love lo mein, it's a must-try recipe!

Provided by Bill

Categories     Noodles and Pasta

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 24

12 ounces flank steak
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 teaspoons dark soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon salt ((or to taste))
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 pound fresh lo mein noodles
1 clove garlic ((minced))
1 carrot ((medium carrot, julienned))
1/2 red bell pepper ((julienned))
1/2 cup mushrooms ((sliced))
1/2 cup bamboo shoots ((strips or sliced))
2 cups Napa cabbage ((shredded))
2/3 cup snow peas
2 cups mung bean sprouts
2 tablespoons vegetable oil ((divided))
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
2 scallions ((julienned, white and green parts separated))

Steps:

  • Slice the beef into thin strips against the grain. Place the sliced beef in a small bowl with baking soda, corn starch, soy sauce, and oil. This velveting step will make the beef tender and flavorful, with a glistening look. Set aside to marinate for 30 minutes.
  • Prepare the lo mein sauce by combining the soy sauce, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, sugar, and ground white pepper in a small bowl.
  • If using cooked lo mein noodles, rinse them under hot tap water to loosen them and drain thoroughly. If using uncooked noodles, cook them according to package instructions until they're al dente, and drain thoroughly. Set aside. Prepare the garlic and all the vegetables to have them ready for cooking. Arrange them in the order you will add them to the wok.
  • Place your wok over high heat until it's smoking lightly. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to coat the wok, and add the beef so it's all in one layer on the hot wok surface. Sear each side for about 30 seconds. Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.
  • Add another tablespoon of oil, along with the garlic, carrots, peppers, and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 30 seconds.
  • Add the bamboo shoots and the white parts of the scallions. Stir-fry for another 20 seconds, and then add the napa cabbage. Make sure your heat is at its highest now, and stir-fry everything together for another 30 seconds.
  • Add the prepared noodles. They should be warm or at room temperature, and not stuck together! If they are, just rinse them in hot water to loosen them up.
  • Add the Shaoxing wine around the perimeter of the wok, and toss the vegetables and noodles together using a scooping motion. After the noodles are warmed up (about 30 seconds to 1 minute), and your pre-mixed sauce.
  • Continue stir-frying with a scooping motion until the sauce is evenly distributed, making sure to scrape the bottom of the wok to prevent the noodles from sticking. High heat and a well-seasoned wok should also prevent any sticking.
  • Next, add the snow peas, mung bean sprouts, and beef (along with any juices that may have collected in the bowl). Continue stir-frying until the noodles are heated through and everything is thoroughly mixed.
  • Toss in the green parts of the scallions, and taste the lo mein. Adjust the seasoning to your liking (feel free to add more salt, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, or white pepper according to your own palate). Plate and serve with homemade chili oil or hot sauce on the side!

STEAK LO MEIN



Steak Lo Mein image

I came up with this recipe watching my mother cooking as my base and then Americanizing it with my taste and what I had on hand. The measurements are estimates and you could vary them to suit your taste.

Provided by Chef Christine

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 25m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 ounces egg noodles
1/2 lb steak
1/2 red bell pepper
1 garlic clove
1 tablespoon sesame oil
soy sauce, adjusted to your taste
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon adobo seasoning
garlic powder (optional)
scallion (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut bell pepper into thin strips and fry until the texture is soft. Add scallions about 5 minutes after the bell pepper.
  • While the bell pepper is cooking cut steak into thin strips. Coat with a little vegetable oil and then with adobo powder, Worcestershire sauce, and add garlic powder if you'd like. Add to peppers and scallions and cook until it is no longer red.
  • Boil noodles according to directions (my package is 3 minutes), strain and add to steak and peppers. Add soy sauce little by little tasting in between to make sure you did not put in too much. Add the sesame oil and mix well. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the final dish. Look for fresh, high-quality steak, vegetables, and noodles.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak helps to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with soy sauce, rice wine, and garlic, or you can get creative and experiment with different flavors.
  • Cook the steak properly: Steak should be cooked to your desired doneness. For a medium-rare steak, cook it for 3-4 minutes per side. For a medium steak, cook it for 5-6 minutes per side.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok: A well-seasoned wok will help to prevent the food from sticking. If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or Dutch oven.
  • Cook the noodles according to the package instructions: Be sure to cook the noodles until they are al dente, or slightly firm to the bite.
  • Add the vegetables and sauce: Once the noodles are cooked, add the vegetables and sauce to the wok. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender and the sauce has thickened.
  • Add the steak: Finally, add the steak to the wok and stir-fry until it is heated through.

Conclusion:

Steak lo mein is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. By following these tips, you can make a restaurant-quality steak lo mein at home. So next time you're in the mood for a delicious and satisfying meal, give steak lo mein a try.
