Ingredients:
2 large garlic cloves, minced |
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce |
2 tablespoons dry sherry |
1 teaspoon sugar |
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper |
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons vegetable oil |
1 pound beef eye of round, halved lengthwise and sliced crosswise 1/16 inch thick |
1 cup chicken stock |
2 tablespoons oyster sauce |
1 teaspoon cornstarch |
1 red onion, sliced 1/2 inch thick |
2 yellow bell peppers, cut into 2-inch squares |
1 red bell pepper, cut into 2-inch squares |
1 teaspoon chinese chili-garlic paste |
1/2 teaspoon asian sesame oil |
1/4 cup coarsely chopped basil |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, mix the garlic, soy sauce, sherry, sugar, pepper and 1 teaspoon of the oil. Add the meat and coat well. Cover and let stand at room temperature for 2 hours or refrigerate overnight.
2. In a small bowl, mix the stock, oyster sauce and cornstarch. In a large skillet, heat 1/2 tablespoon of the oil. Add half of the meat and cook over high heat until browned on 1 side, about 1 minute. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with 1/2 tablespoon of the oil and the remaining meat.
3. Add the onion and the remaining 1 teaspoon of oil to the skillet and cook over moderate heat, stirring until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the bell peppers and cook over moderately low heat, stirring, until crisp-tender, about 6 minutes. Stir the stock mixture, then pour it into the skillet and simmer over moderate heat, stirring, until it starts to thicken, about 2 minutes. Return the meat to the skillet and simmer until heated through. Remove from the heat. Stir in the chili-garlic paste, sesame oil and basil and serve
