Provided by Carla Hall

Categories     main-dish

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup long-grain rice
12 ounces skirt steak, cut into 1/2-inch slices
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon canola oil
2 tablespoons mirin
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
3 cloves garlic, grated
1 large carrot, peeled and sliced on a bias
3 ounces snow peas, strings removed, halved crosswise
1 scallion green, thinly sliced on a bias

Steps:

  • For the rice: To a small saucepan, add the rice and 2 cups of water. Place the pan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Cover the pan, reduce the heat to low and simmer until the rice is tender, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, combine the skirt steak and 2 tablespoons soy sauce in a medium bowl and toss to combine. Chill for 10 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, mix 1/2 cup cornstarch with salt and pepper to taste. Toss the skirt steak in the cornstarch mixture and coat well. Transfer the coated meat to a fine sieve and knock off any excess cornstarch.
  • Heat 1 cup canola oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add half of the beef in a single layer and cook without stirring for 2 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly brown on both sides, 2 to 3 minutes longer; transfer to a plate lined with paper towels. Repeat with remaining skirt steak. Carefully discard the hot oil and wipe the skillet clean.
  • To a small bowl, add the remaining 2 tablespoons soy sauce, mirin, red wine vinegar, ginger, crushed red pepper, garlic and remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Mix to combine.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the carrots and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until starting to soften, about 2 minutes. Add the snow peas and cook for 2 minutes. Add the garlic-ginger sauce and stir to combine. Cook for 1 minute until the liquid starts to thicken. Add the crispy skirt steak and toss until fully coated. If the sauce looks too thick, you can add 1/4 cup water to thin it out. Serve over rice and garnish with scallion greens.

CHILI BEEF STIR-FRY WITH SCALLIONS AND SNOW PEAS



Chili Beef Stir-Fry with Scallions and Snow Peas image

Provided by Aida Mollenkamp

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 3 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 tablespoons chili-garlic sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons mirin or sherry
1 teaspoon honey
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 pound flank steak, trimmed and frozen briefly
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
6 scallions, ends trimmed and thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon grated ginger
12 ounces snow peas

Steps:

  • Whisk the chili-garlic sauce, soy sauce, mirin, honey, sesame oil, and cornstarch together in a small bowl and set aside. Cut the beef lengthwise along the grain into 3 or 4 (2-inch) wide pieces. Slice each piece of beef across the grain into paper thin pieces, about 1/8-inch thick. Pat the beef dry and season well with salt and pepper, to taste.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium nonstick skillet over high heat just until smoking. Add the beef and cook, stirring rarely, until well browned, about 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to a plate.
  • Return the skillet to the stove over medium-low heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil, half of the scallions, the garlic, and the ginger, and cook until just fragrant and starting to color, about 30 seconds. Stir in the snow peas, and cook, stirring occasionally, until bright green, about 2 minutes. Whisk in the chili-garlic sauce mixture, then remove the pan from the heat, and add the beef and accumulated juices. Toss to coat and transfer to a serving platter. Serve immediately sprinkled with remaining scallions.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, tender snow peas and carrots, and thinly slice them for even cooking. Select flank steak or sirloin steak for a tender and flavorful stir-fry.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, cornstarch, and Chinese cooking wine helps tenderize it and adds flavor.
  • Use a hot wok or large skillet: A hot wok or large skillet helps create the signature smoky flavor and charred bits in a stir-fry.
  • Cook the beef in batches: Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet with beef. Cook it in batches to prevent steaming and ensure even cooking.
  • Stir-fry the vegetables separately: Snow peas and carrots cook quickly, so stir-fry them separately from the beef to prevent overcooking.
  • Add the sauce at the end: Combine the stir-fry sauce ingredients in a bowl and add them to the wok or skillet towards the end of cooking. This helps prevent the sauce from burning.

Conclusion:

This stir-fried beef with snow peas and carrots recipe is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. By following these tips, you can create a delicious and healthy stir-fry that the whole family will enjoy. Serve it over rice or noodles for a complete meal. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
