I got this recipe from my sister, and it quickly became my favorite pepper-steak recipe, even over the one we had grown up with! You can use extra-lean ground beef instead of steak for a more frugal version, if you like. Ingredients:
1 lb beef steaks, sliced thin or 1 lb extra lean ground beef |
1 tablespoon oil (omit if using ground beef) |
1 clove garlic, minced |
1 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
3 large bell peppers, sliced |
2 large onions, sliced |
3/4 teaspoon beef bouillon granules or 3/4 teaspoon au jus mix |
3/4 cup hot water |
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
1/4 cup soy sauce |
1/4 cup cold water |
1 teaspoon sugar |
cooked rice or noodles, as desired |
Directions:
1. Saute steak in oil (if using ground beef, omit oil). 2. Add garlic, ginger, salt and pepper. 3. Cook 1 minute. 4. Remove meat and keep warm. 5. Add peppers and onions to same pan; cook til crisp-tender. 6. Add beef flavoring, hot water, and water chestnuts. 7. Combine cornstarch, soy sauce, cold water and sugar; stir into skillet. 8. Add meat; bring to a boil. 9. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. 10. Serve over hot rice or noodles. |
