Sizzling Chinese Pepper Steak with Onions
🛒 What You’ll Need:
- The Protein: 1 lb Flank steak or Sirloin (thinly sliced against the grain). 🥩
- The Veggies: * 2 large Bell Peppers (red and green, sliced into strips). 🫑
- 1 large Onion (sliced into wedges or thick strips). 🧅
- The Savory Stir-Fry Sauce:
- 1/4 cup Soy Sauce. 🥣
- 1 tbsp Ginger (freshly minced). 🧄
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced). 🧄
- 1 tbsp Brown Sugar or Keto-friendly sweetener. 🍯
- 1/2 tsp Black Pepper (lots of it for that “pepper” kick!). 🧂
- Garnish: Sesame seeds and sliced green onions. ✨
👨🍳 Step-by-Step Preparation:
- Prep the Steak: Slice the beef thinly and toss it in a small bowl with a splash of soy sauce to marinate while you prep the veggies. 🔪🥩
- Whisk the Sauce: In another small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sweetener, and black pepper. 🌪️🥣
- High-Heat Sizzle: Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat with a bit of oil. Add the steak strips in a single layer and sear until browned (about 2-3 minutes). Remove beef from the pan and set aside. 🔥🍳
- Sauté the Veggies: In the same pan, add your onions and bell peppers. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp and have those beautiful charred edges. 🫑🧅
- The Final Toss: Add the cooked beef back into the pan and pour the sauce over everything. Toss constantly for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats every delicious bite! 🍯🥩🌀
- Serve: Garnish with sesame seeds and serve hot over steamed rice or cauliflower rice for a low-carb option! 🍽️✨
