THE BEST PEPPER STEAK



The Best Pepper Steak image

Pepper steak is a Chinese-American stir-fry dish that coats tender sliced steak and crisp-tender bell peppers in a deeply savory and slightly sweet sauce. We used flank steak here, but it is equally delicious with skirt or flap steak. No matter the cut, make sure to slice it thinly across the grain to ensure the meat is tender in the final dish. We tested bell peppers cut into a variety of sizes and found that one-inch pieces worked best, yielding peppers cooked to the perfect doneness (not too snappy but not at all mushy).

Time 3h10m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 1/2 pounds flank steak
4 cloves garlic
One 1 1/2-inch piece ginger
7 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup Shaoxing wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon sugar
Freshly ground black pepper
1/3 cup beef broth
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons canola oil
1/2 medium white onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large red bell pepper (about 8 ounces), cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large green bell pepper (about 8 ounces), cut into 1-inch pieces
1 tablespoon cornstarch
Sliced scallions, for topping
Toasted sesame seeds, for topping
Steamed white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • Freeze the flank steak until the meat is slightly frozen and firm enough to thinly slice with ease, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Finely grate 2 cloves of the garlic into a large bowl. Peel the ginger and cut it in half. Finely grate one of the ginger halves into the same bowl; reserve the remaining ginger. Whisk in 3 tablespoons of the soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of the Shaoxing wine, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the sugar and several large grinds of pepper to combine. Set aside.
  • Thinly slice the flank steak against the grain on a very slight bias into 1/4-inch-thick strips. Cut any extra-long pieces in half; the strips should be no longer than 3 to 4 inches. Add to the bowl with the marinade and stir to combine. Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
  • About 30 minutes before finishing the dish, use tongs to transfer the steak to a large baking sheet lined with several layers of paper towels and arrange in a single layer. Lay additional paper towels on top to help absorb any excess marinade. Set aside to take the chill off the meat.
  • Whisk together the beef broth, sesame oil, remaining 1/4 cup soy sauce, remaining 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar and a couple large grinds of pepper in a medium bowl; set aside.
  • Finely mince the remaining 2 cloves garlic and add to a small bowl. Finely mince the remaining ginger and add to the same bowl. Set aside.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the canola oil in a large skillet over high heat. When the oil starts to shimmer, add a third of the steak strips in a single layer and cook until well-browned on the first side, about 1 minute. Flip and cook until browned on the second side, about 1 more minute. Transfer to a large plate. Cook the remaining steak in 2 additional batches, adding 1 1/2 teaspoons of canola oil per batch. Transfer to the plate.
  • Lower the heat to medium high. Add the onion and a splash of water to the empty skillet and cook, scraping up any browned bits and stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add the red and green bell peppers and cook, stirring frequently and adding another splash of water if the skillet starts to get too brown on the bottom, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until softened, about 1 minute.
  • Return the steak to the skillet and stir to combine. Whisk the cornstarch into the sauce, then pour it into the skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thick and glossy, about 2 minutes. Transfer the pepper steak to a large serving platter and top with sliced scallions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately with a side of steamed rice.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality steak: The better the steak, the better the dish will be. Look for a steak that is well-marbled and has a good amount of fat.
  • Slice the steak thinly: This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
  • Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, garlic, and ginger will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
  • Use a hot pan: When you cook the steak, make sure the pan is very hot. This will help to sear the steak and prevent it from sticking.
  • Cook the steak in batches: Don't overcrowd the pan when you cook the steak. This will prevent it from cooking evenly.
  • Don't overcook the steak: Steak is best when it is cooked to a medium-rare or medium doneness. Overcooked steak will be tough and chewy.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Gingery pepper steak can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables.

Conclusion:

Gingery pepper steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight meal. The steak is tender and flavorful, and the sauce is sweet, savory, and slightly spicy. Serve it with your favorite sides for a complete and satisfying meal.
