Szechuan Beef Stirfry

Another easy and yummy recipe!  We couldn’t find any snow peas anywhere for some reason (and by anywhere I mean the whole 2 stores we looked) but we used cauliflower and red peppers for our vegetables instead :) I also added a few red pepper flakes to make it a little more spicy for Brent and I - Devlan loved the beef! We served with some plain white and wild rice as well.  Fast, easy and delish - enjoy!

 

Ingredients

• 3 ounces extra lean beef flank steak, raw (I used vegetarian beef tips for Brent!)
• 1 1/2 teaspoons reduced sodium soy sauce
• 1/4 teaspoon honey
• 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
• 1 teaspoon chopped garlic
• 1 teaspoon ginger root, fresh
• 1/2 cup red bell pepper, cut in strips
• 1/3 cup snow pea pods, fresh or frozen

 

Preparation

• Cut beef across the grain into 1/8 inch thick strips and place in a shallow dish.
• Combine soy sauce and honey in a bowl and pour over meat strips, tossing to coat.
• Heat oil in a wok or heavy nonstick skillet over high heat. Add cayenne pepper, garlic and ginger and sauteé for 30 seconds. Add bell pepper and snow peas and stir fry 3 minutes; remove vegetables from pan.
• Stir fry beef strips 2-3 minutes, until cooked throughout. Return vegetables to pan and continue to cook until heated through
