An easy recipe for the busy housewife. The beef can be sliced and marinated ahead of time making the meat even tastier. Eat the dish alone or serve with rice. Use a tender cut such as New York steak or prime rib. Ingredients:
2 (1/2 pound) new york strip steaks, sliced into thin strips |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
1 1/2 teaspoons white sugar |
3 tablespoons olive oil |
1 sweet onion, chopped |
2 cloves garlic, crushed |
1 tablespoon oyster sauce |
salt and pepper to taste |
1 pound snow peas |
3/4 cup green peas |
1 carrot, sliced |
2 stalks celery, sliced |
1 red bell pepper, seeded and cut into chunks |
1/4 cup oil for deep frying |
Directions:
1. Place the sliced steak in a large bowl. Sprinkle the cornstarch over the beef slices and mix to coat. Whisk the soy sauce and sugar together in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves; pour over the beef slices. Mix and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.
2. Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the onion and garlic in the hot oil until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir the oyster sauce into the onion and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Add the snow peas, green peas, carrot, celery, and red bell pepper; cook and stir until the vegetables are slightly tender, yet still crisp, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat.
3. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a separate skillet. Remove the beef from the marinade, shaking off any excess moisture; discard the marinade. Fry the beef slices in the hot oil to your desired degree of doneness, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium. Add the cooked beef to the vegetable mixture and mix well. Serve hot.
