This method should result in Chinese Pepper Steak just like you get in your neighborhood Chinese restaurant. Follow me on all the cuts, the marinade, the prepping, and final cooking. This video is short but complete. It makes it easy for you to play over and over again. Then go to the kitchen and do it yourself.
If you don't have a wok, try it anyway. Just make sure the heat is high because everything goes quickly. It would be good if you marinade the meat overnight but a couple of hours is Ok.
INGREDIENTS:
1 ½ lbs. beef flank steak, very thin ½ cup beef broth
1 medium onion, cut up 1 green bell pepper, cut up
1 Tbsp. fresh ginger, grated 1 Tbsp. garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. oyster sauce 1 Tbsp. soy sauce
1 tsp. sugar 1 tsp. corn starch
METHOD: Prepare a marinade with broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and corn starch. Cut very thin flank steak into small pieces like shown in the video. Place meat in marinade (ideally, you should have a jar with a tight cap) and set aside in fridge for couple hours or best if overnight. Cut onion and green bell pepper in squares as shown in video. Mince garlic and grate fresh ginger. If all items are ready, heat one tablespoon of canola or vegetable oil in wok or pan then begin with garlic and ginger. Be sure not to exceed sautéing for more than one minute stirring constantly. Add meat all at once and stir rapidly over very high heat until meat is browned. Take meat out and set aside. Heat one tablespoon oil in wok. Add onions and peppers all at once and continue stirring rapidly. Keep this up until onions and peppers are well cooked but should be 3 to 4 minutes at most. Return meat to wok and stir to blend with veggies. Make an open space in the middle of the wok or pan by pushing everything aside. Pour the marinade in the open space and stir the little pool of liquid constantly for two minutes or until it thickens. Then bring all ingredients back together again, stirring to make the sauce blend with the meat and the vegetables. Serve immediately with white rice.
Thanks! I cut out all the gab and knife cuts to make video as short as possible in case you need to play again. 8 more Chinese dishes coming right after my Spanish spoken videos. Bye- Chef Remy
