Provided by Trisha Yearwood

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/2 pounds skirt steak, cut into 4-inch-long pieces, then cut against the grain into 1/4-inch-thick slices
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 serrano chile pepper, seeded and finely chopped
2 teaspoons sugar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (1 to 2 limes)
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, grated
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced
6 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/4 pound snow peas or green beans
1 12-ounce can baby corn, drained
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced (optional)

Steps:

  • Season the steak with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, chile pepper, sugar and lime juice until the sugar is dissolved. Add the beef, toss to coat and set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil until shimmering, about 1 minute. Add the beef and cook, stirring, until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside. Allow the liquid in the pan to reduce until thickened, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and scallions and cook 1 minute more. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the snow peas, baby corn and bell pepper and continue cooking until all the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Return the beef to the skillet and toss to combine.

STIR-FRY BEEF



Stir-Fry Beef image

This beef stir-fry is a little spicy...if you need a milder version reduce the crushed red pepper by half. This comes from "Plain & Elegant: A Georgia Heritage" . The original recipe does not call for any green vegetable, but I like to add some fresh asparagus when I cook the squash....but I posted it as originally posted.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, flavorful ingredients will make a big difference in the final dish. Look for ripe nectarines, tender beef, and a good-quality stir-fry sauce.
  • Slice the beef thinly: This will help it cook quickly and evenly. You can also use a meat mallet to pound the beef into thin slices.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and spices will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
  • Cook the beef over high heat: This will help to sear the meat and lock in the flavor. Be sure to stir the beef constantly so that it cooks evenly.
  • Add the nectarines last: Nectarines cook quickly, so you don't want to add them to the stir-fry until the end. This will help to prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Serve immediately: Stir-fry is best served immediately after it is cooked. This will help to preserve the flavor and texture of the dish.

Conclusion:

Stir-fry beef with nectarines is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The combination of sweet and savory flavors is sure to please everyone at the table. With a few simple tips, you can make a stir-fry that is both flavorful and healthy.
