Panda Express Bejing Beef

Serves 4

Ingredients

Beef

  • 1.25 pounds beef, I used hanger but flank or skirt will also be great
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • ½ teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
  • 3/4 cup corn starch
  • 6 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 small onion, cut into a medium dice
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into a medium dice
  • Oil for frying
  • Cooked white rice for serving

‍

Sauce

  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy
  • 1/4 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup ketchup
  • 1/4 cup oyster sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sriracha

Directions

The key to successful Chinese food stir frying, is to have everything ready before you start cooking.

  1. Slice beef into strips (against the grain of course) and put in a bowl with the soy, vinegar and pepper – mix and set aside
  2. In another bowl combine sauce ingredients and set aside
  3. Heat a couple inches of oil in a wok or pan to 350 degrees
  4. Coat each slice of beef in the corn starch, shake off excess, then fry in the oil until golden brown – you’ll need to do this in batches because too many pieces at a time will drop the oil temp. Then remove the pieces and set aside, repeat with the rest
  5. When done, get rid of the oil, but add a couple tablespoons in the wok
  6. Turn up to high and put in the onion & red pepper - stir fry 2 minutes, then add the garlic and stir until fragrant – about 30 seconds
  7. Pour in the sauce, stir and simmer for a minute until bubbly and thickening then add the beef back in, mix well to coat with the sauce and heat through – you’re done
  8. Serve with rice
