PANDA EXPRESS' BEIJING BEEF COPYCAT



Panda Express' Beijing Beef Copycat image

My fiance is a Panda Express FANATIC. When they came out with Beijing Beef, my fiance would only order that item. Panda Express featured the recipe on their site, unfortunately, they have taken it down now. The recipe is on my other computer so I searched online and found the same recipe on blogchef.net I'm going to be tweaking this recipe because the sauce doesn't taste 100% like the real thing.

Categories     Main Course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 pound flank steak
1 cup canola oil
4 cloves garlic (minced)
1 yellow onion (sliced)
1 pieces red bell pepper (cut into 1")
1/4 cup cornstarch (divided)
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 egg whites (beaten)
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons ketchup
6 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons oyster sauce
4 teaspoons sweet chili sauce
1 teaspoons crushed red peppers
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar

Steps:

  • Cut the flank steak against the grain into thin 1/4 inch slices.
  • In a medium sized bowl add the beef, egg, salt and 1 teaspoon cornstarch and let marinate for 30 minutes to an hour.
  • To make the Beijing Beef Sauce, in a small bowl whisk together the 1/2 cup water, 1/4 cup sugar, ketchup, hoisin, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sweet chili sauce, crushed red peppers and apple cider vinegar.
  • After the beef has finishing marinating add 2 tablespoons cornstarch to a bowl, add the marinated beef (discard the extra marinade).
  • Heat a small saucepan with the oil on medium-high (I use a small saucepan so that I can get a deep fry on this without using a lot of oil. So I fry in small batches, if you don't mind using more oil, go for a bigger pot and you can fry these up much faster).
  • With the last two tablespoons of cornstarch toss the beef one last time and shake off any excess cornstarch.
  • Fry the slices, in batches, until golden brown (2-3 minutes).
  • Heat a large pan on high heat and use two tablespoons of the oil you just fried the beef in.
  • Add the onion and bell pepper and cook for 2-3 minutes, until it just starts caramelizing on the edges.
  • Add the garlic in and continue to cook a few more seconds until fragrant.
  • Remove the veggies and put them with the beef on a plate.
  • Add the Beijing Beef sauce to the large pan and cook on high until it thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Add the beef and vegetables into the sauce and toss to combine.
  • Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For tender beef, use a flank steak or skirt steak. Slice the beef thinly against the grain for best results.
  • To save time, use a pre-made sauce or marinade. You can find these in the Asian section of most grocery stores.
  • If you don't have a wok, you can use a large skillet or frying pan.
  • Be sure to cook the beef in batches so that it doesn't crowd the pan. This will help to prevent the beef from steaming rather than searing.
  • Add the vegetables to the pan at the end of the cooking process so that they remain crisp.

Conclusion:

Beijing beef is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is sure to please everyone at your table. It is a great way to use up leftover steak or flank steak. Serve it over rice or noodles, and enjoy!
