An Awesome Pepper Steak Stir Fry. I do some minor variations (mostly doubling the meat which can also be substituted with chicken or sausage). I'll list my variations in (parentheses). Ingredients:
1 lb beef flank steak or 1 lb boneless sirloin steak |
1 tablespoon tbsps vegetable oil |
1 teaspoon tsps cornstarch |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon soy sauce |
1/4 teaspoon white pepper |
3 small tomatoes |
2 medium green peppers |
1 medium onion |
1 cup chicken broth |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
2 tablespoons soy sauce |
1 teaspoon sugar |
3 tablespoons vegetable oil |
1 teaspoon finely chopped gingerroot |
1 teaspoon ground garlic (i substitute with chopped garlic) |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
Directions:
1. Trim fat from beef; cut beef along grain into 2 inch strips. Cut strips across grain into 1/8 inch wide slices (I sometimes add cubed italian sausage to the beef mixture). In a bowl, toss together the first six ingredients, including beef slices. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Cut each tomato into 8 wedges (I remove the seeds). Slice green peppers into 1 inch pieces, no more than 1/4 inch thick. Cut onion into 3/4 inch pieces. In a separate bowl, mix chicken broth, 2 T. cornstarch, 2 T. soy sauce and sugar. Heat wok on medium-high until drops of water bubble. Add 3T. of vegetable oil; spread around to coat surface. Add onion, gingerroot and garlic to wok. Stir-fry until garlic and onions are light brown. Add beef mixture, stir-fry until meat is brown, about 5 minutes. Remove beef mixture from wok. Add 2 T. vegetable oil to wok; spread to coat surface. Stir-fry green peppers for 2 minutes. Add tomatoes; stir-fry 1 minute. To wok, add cornstarch-chicken broth mixture; cook and stir until thickened on medium-high heat. Add beef mixture; stir-fry 3 minutes or until hot. Serve over rice or noodles. (I usually will freshly grind black pepper into the wok as I'm cooking).
