Pepper Steak Wok Action

Been in a major funk lately and didn't feel like cooking much and when I did, I didn't feel like grabbing the camera.  I finally did tonight for a wok cook.  Cooked some pepper steak using THIS recipe as a guide.  I didn't use snow peas, but used pepper and onion.  

This dish was very flavorful and one of the best beef wok dishes I have made in some time.  

• 1-1/2 pound Flank Steak
• 1/2 cup Low Sodium Soy Sauce
• 3 Tablespoons Sherry Or Cooking Sherry
• 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
• 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
• 1 Tablespoon Minced Fresh Ginger
• 1-2 cups bell pepper
• One yellow onion
• 2 whole Scallions, Cut Into Half-inch Pieces On The Diagonal
• 1-2 tablespoons canola oil
•  Jasmine Or Long Grain Rice, Cooked According To Package

In a bowl, mix together soy sauce, sherry, brown sugar, cornstarch, and ginger. Pour half the liquid over the sliced meat in a bowl and toss with hands. Reserve the other half of the liquid. Set aside.

Heat oil in a heavy skillet (iron is best) or wok over high heat. Add snow peas and stir for 45 seconds. Remove to a separate plate. Set aside.

Allow pan to get very hot again. With tongs, add half the meat mixture, leaving most of the marinade still in the bowl. Add half the scallions. Spread out meat as you add it to pan, but do not stir for a good minute. (You want the meat to get as brown as possible in as short amount a time as possible.) Turn meat to the other side and cook for another 30 seconds. Remove to a clean plate.

Repeat with other half of meat, allowing pan to get very hot again first. After turning it, add the first plateful of meat, the rest of the marinade, and the snow peas. Stir over high heat for 30 seconds, then turn off heat. Check seasonings and add salt only if it needs it. Mixture will thicken as it sits.

Serve immediately over rice.

Pictures to prove it. 

1 - The ingredients 

2 - Veggies in first to get happy

3 - Then the flank.  I let the flank get cooked well and some crust then added the onions.  

4 - Added veggies back with the sauce.  

5 - Hot off the wok

6 - Plated picture sucks.  

7 - Desert was a watermelon milkshake from Cook Out.  If you're ever around a Cook Out, get one of their shakes!  

Thanks for taking a look!
