2 cloves garlic, finely minced, finely minced
Ground peanuts, optional
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
3/4 cup coconut milk

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 large egg whites
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 tablespoons cornstarch
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound boneless beef top round, sliced paper-thin against the grain
8 fresh chives, minced
1/2 cup peanut oil
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 green onions, white and green parts, chopped
1 dried red chile
3/4 pound green beans, halved on the bias
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
3 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
2 strips orange peel
1/4 cup roasted peanuts, chopped

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon of the cornstarch until foamy; season with salt and pepper. Add the beef and chives, toss to coat in the marinade and stick it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Pour the peanut oil in a large skillet or wok and place over high heat. When the oil is smoking hot, add 1/2 of the beef. (If you fry all the meat at once the oil temperature will drop and the beef will stew instead of crisp.) Fry for 2 minutes then remove to a paper towel to drain; repeat with the remaining beef. Very carefully drain all but 2 tablespoons of the hot oil into a safe container.
  • Stir-fry the ginger, garlic, green onions, and chile in the remaining oil until they perfume. Add the green beans; season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry the beans for 2 minutes until crisp-tender; remove from the pan. Mix the chicken broth with the remaining tablespoon of cornstarch to make a slurry and add it to the pan. Add the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, peanut butter, and orange peel. Simmer until the sauce is thick, about 5 minutes. Return the beef and green beans to the pan, tossing to coat in the sauce. Garnish with chopped peanuts and serve with rice.

Tips:

  • Trim the green beans properly: To trim the green beans, simply snap off the ends. You can also use a knife to cut off the ends if you prefer.
  • Blanch the green beans: Blanching the green beans helps to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch the green beans, simply bring a pot of water to a boil and then add the green beans. Boil the green beans for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Then, immediately transfer the green beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Make the peanut sauce ahead of time: The peanut sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. This makes it a great option for a quick and easy meal.
  • Serve the green beans with peanut sauce warm or cold: Green beans with peanut sauce can be served warm or cold. If you are serving them warm, simply reheat the peanut sauce over low heat until it is warmed through.
