SPICY SICHUAN BEEF STIR-FRY



Spicy Sichuan Beef Stir-Fry image

This beef and vegetable stir-fry takes its cues from dry fried Sichuan beef, which calls for browning strips of beef over high heat to ensure juicy, flavorful meat. Hot cherry peppers and spicy black bean sauce give this dish its fire, but you can use sweet black bean sauce for a mellower version. To get closer to the original dish, seek out Sichuan peppercorns.

1 pound flank steak, halved lengthwise and thinly sliced against the grain

This was not prepared for the residents of the home instead it was prepared at a friends' house.U[date on June 07/2008 - made this again and we added green peppers along with the red & yellow peppers and we also added button mushrooms - for a change of pace. It tasted even better than the first time!

SPICY GARLIC BEEF STIR FRY



Spicy Garlic Beef Stir Fry image

This stir fry is delicious with tender strips of beef, sweet fresh veggies and a spicy beef sauce. I like to marinate my stir fry meat before cooking to add an extra layer of flavor. I like to use Dale's Liquid Steak Seasoning, but it can be difficult to find. If you can't find this product, substitute 1 1/2 tbs. soy sauce plus 1 tbs. Worcestershire Sauce. It's not the same but close enough. The heat level of this dish is just right for me, but you may adjust the amount of cayenne pepper per your taste.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 50m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 lb sirloin steak, sliced into thin strips (1/4-inch)
2 tablespoons dale's liquid steak seasoning (low sodium)
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ginger, ground
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 beef bouillon cube
1/2 cup water, boiling
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cups snow peas, trimmed
1 cup red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
1 cup asparagus, sliced into 2-inch lengths
1 garlic clove, minced
1 onion, sliced thin (medium-sized)
1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
2 cups white rice (I use quick-cooking)

Steps:

  • In a small mixing bowl, dissolve beef bouillon cube in boiling water. Set aside to cool.
  • Place beef and steak seasoning in a plastic resealable bag. Seal bag, releasing as much air as possible, and toss/squeeze with hands until well coated. Marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature.
  • Once beef bouillon mixture has cooled, whisk in soy sauce, garlic powder, ginger, cayenne pepper and cornstarch. Set aside.
  • In a wok, heat 1 tbs. oil until glistening. Brown beef strips on both sides, leaving a slight tinge of pink in the middle. Remove to another dish, cover and set aside.
  • Add remaining 1 tbs. oil to wok. Add vegetables and black pepper and cook until crisp-tender. Once vegetables are cooked, return beef to wok and toss to combine.
  • Make a well in the center of the wok and add sauce mixture, stirring constantly until slightly thickened. Then toss all together.
  • Serve immediately over rice.

1 large red chilli

Tips:

  • Use fresh ginger: Fresh ginger has a more intense flavor than ground ginger, so it's best to use it whenever possible.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When stir-frying, it's important to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the beef from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to steam rather than fry.
  • Cook the beef in batches: If you have a lot of beef to cook, it's best to cook it in batches. This will help to prevent the pan from getting too crowded and will ensure that the beef cooks evenly.
  • Use a high-quality soy sauce: Soy sauce is a key ingredient in this dish, so it's important to use a high-quality soy sauce. Look for a soy sauce that is made with natural ingredients and that has a rich, flavorful taste.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately after they are cooked. This will ensure that the vegetables are still crisp and the beef is still tender.

Conclusion:

Spicy ginger beef stir-fry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The beef is tender and flavorful, and the vegetables are crisp and colorful. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
