Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

8 ounces flank steaks
2 cups pea pods
1 (8 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts (optional)
2 slices gingerroot
2 stalks chopped green onions
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil (optional)
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Rinse rice in pot, and cook (follow package directions).
  • While the rice is cooking, slice flank steak in thin slices (approximately 2 inches long by a quarter inch wide) and place in marinade.
  • Make sure that the steak is coated in marinade.
  • Wash pea pods and pinch off the ends.
  • Chop the green onions and slice ginger.
  • Heat large skillet on high heat.
  • Drop 1 tbsp olive oil onto skillet.
  • Put meat and marinade in skillet and fry until brown.
  • Add more olive oil if necessary.
  • Add ginger and green onions to skillet.
  • Fry 1 minute.
  • Add the pea pods and water chestnuts.
  • Fry until pea pods are hot but not soggy.
  • The rice should be finished by now.
  • Serve stir-fry over rice.
  • NOTES: I use small package of Green Giant frozen Sugar Snap Peas so I don't have to wash and prepare the fresh vegetables.
  • I microwave them for 2 minutes to defrost them.
  • You could also substitute other vegetables for the pea pods such as chopped broccoli or chopped green peppers.
  • You can also add more vegetables, such as carrots and/or peppers.
  • I also buy the steak "thin sliced", and cut those slices up.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better your stir-fry will be. Look for fresh, tender beef, crisp vegetables, and flavorful sauces.
  • Cut your ingredients into even pieces: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for pieces that are about 1-2 inches in size.
  • Don't overcrowd your pan: If you add too much food to the pan, it will steam and not stir-fry properly. Cook your ingredients in batches if necessary.
  • Use a hot pan: A hot pan will help sear the meat and vegetables and prevent them from sticking. Preheat your pan over high heat before adding the oil.
  • Stir-fry quickly: Stir-fry is a fast-cooking method, so don't overcook your ingredients. Stir constantly to ensure that everything cooks evenly.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of soy sauce or rice vinegar for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Quickie Beef Stir-Fry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of prep work, you can have a healthy and flavorful stir-fry on the table in no time.
