STIR-FRIED BEEF AND SUGAR SNAP PEAS



Stir-Fried Beef and Sugar Snap Peas image

Here's a stir-fry far better than most take-out Chinese, and you can make it with any lean cut of meat - flank steak, London broil, tenderloin, sirloin or skirt steak - so long as it is cut thin against the grain. Most takeout joints use snow peas, but sugar snaps are juicier and more succulent, and just as crunchy. (Their downside is that they are slightly more work: they need to be thinly sliced.) As for the sauce, it's simple: thick dark soy sauce (tamari works well), sesame oil, chicken broth and Madeira.

4 garlic cloves, minced
Rice, for serving
2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds (optional)
Sriracha or other hot sauce, or rice wine vinegar for garnish

BEEF STIR-FRY



Beef Stir-Fry image

"The best thing about a stir-fry is that you can substitute the vegetables you like most."

Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 serrano chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (1 to 2 limes)

6 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced

BEEF AND SUGAR SNAP PEA STIR FRY RECIPE



Beef and Sugar Snap Pea Stir Fry Recipe image

This is the absolute best BEEF STIR FRY RECIPE! It's a super easy 30 minute dinner that is delicious. The dish includes tender slices of flank steak and sugar snap pea pods.

Provided by Amy Casey

Categories     entrée

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/4 pounds flank steak
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
3 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce, divided
1/2 cup reduced sodium beef stock
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 cups sugar snap peas
sesame seeds for serving
4 cups cooked hot rice

Steps:

  • Place the flank steak on a cutting board and thinly slice against the grain. You want slices that are 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick. Place the sliced steak in a bowl and sprinkle with the baking soda, 1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce and 1 tablespoon water. Toss to combine and let marinate for 15 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining 2 tablespoons of reduced sodium soy sauce, reduced sodium beef stock, oyster sauce, light brown sugar and cornstarch. Stir to dissolve the light brown sugar and cornstarch. Set aside.
  • Fill a medium sized pot with water, place of high heat and bring to a boil. When the water boils, add the sugar snap peas. Cook for 2 minutes. Drain the snap peas in a colander and set aside.
  • After the steak has marinated for 15 minutes, heat a large sauté pan or wok over medium high heat. Add the toasted sesame oil. When the oil is hot (this will take less than a minute over medium high heat) add the steak. Let the steak sauté for a minute or so and then stir to cook evenly. You want the steak to just be cooked with still a few pink spots. It should be medium rare to medium. Overcooking the steak will make it tough.
  • Pour the sauce into the the pan. Let come to a low boil then stir to finish cooking the steak and thicken the sauce. This will take about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the sugar snap peas and toss to coat with the sauce.
  • Serve the beef stir fry over the rice and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
