CRAZY SZECHUAN BEEF AND MESSY CORN WITH SHISHITO
This corn dish is a fun side that uses many of the same ingredients as the beef recipe. From summer through fall, make this with corn on the cob; but in the winter, substitute 4 cups of frozen fire-roasted corn kernels. Simple white rice is great with both dishes.

Steps:
- For the steak and marinade: Place steak in freezer for a few minutes to firm up a bit, then thinly slice on a bias against the grain.
- In a shallow dish, stir up marinade and spices: cornstarch, rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, cumin, Szechuan pepper and ground turmeric if using. Add meat and coat, then let stand 10 to 15 minutes.
- For the vegetables and sauce: Peel ginger and turmeric if using and grate or mince. Chop or grate garlic. In a small bowl, whisk up sauce: ginger, garlic, turmeric, soy, Shaoxing rice wine or sherry, sweet chile sauce, chile garlic sauce or sriracha and sesame oil. Place about the cornstarch in smaller bowl or ramekin.
- Peel and chop carrot into thin matchsticks. Quarter pepper lengthwise, remove seeds and thinly slice across. Cut the scallions 1 inch on bias.
- Heat a large cast-iron or nonstick pan over high heat with peanut oil, 2 turns of the pan. Cook beef in 2 batches if necessary to crisp, about 3 minutes each. Add another turn of pan of oil and stir-fry the carrot, peppers and Asian chiles, if using, and toss for a minute. Add sauce to the pan. Add a splash of water to cornstarch and add to sauce to thicken. Add beef and toss, then add half the scallions. Transfer to bowl and top with remaining scallions and sesame seeds, if using. Serve with Messy Corn and Shishito Peppers.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
- In a bowl, mix butter, garlic powder, paprika, and 1/8 teaspoon of black pepper. Slice the bottom off the head of bok choy, and remove and clean the stalks. Sprinkle seasoned salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper over both sides of the stalks.
- Lay the bok choy stalks on the preheated grill. Brush with seasoned butter mixture, cover the grill, and cook until the bok choy stalks show grill marks and the leaves are crisp at the edges, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the bok choy, brush with butter mixture, cover, and grill the other sides. Brush with any remaining butter mixture, and remove to a platter to serve.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, flavorful vegetables and tender cuts of meat.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, sesame oil, and spices tenderizes the meat and infuses it with flavor.
- Cook the beef over high heat: This will create a nice sear on the outside of the meat while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
- Prepare the bok choy: Blanch the bok choy in boiling water for a few minutes until it is tender but still has a bit of a crunch.
- Make the spicy peanut mayonnaise: Combine mayonnaise, peanut butter, Sriracha, and rice vinegar in a bowl and whisk until smooth.
- Assemble the wraps: Place a grilled steak strip, some bok choy, and a dollop of spicy peanut mayonnaise on a lettuce leaf and wrap it up.
