Kung Pao Beef instructions
- Slice beef into pieces. Mine were about 1/2 inch by 2 inches. But make them whatever size you like. I was using a sirloin steak this time. I cut it in half lengthwise, and sliced each half..
- Sprinkle the beef with salt and pepper in a small bowl, mix well.
- Add cornstarch, mix until all is coated, set aside.
- In a small container, I used a coffee mug, mix together the sauce ingredients. Set aside.
- Using a stir-fry, wok, or skillet, add 1 tablespoon oil, heat on medium high.
- Add about 1/3 of your fresh chillies, sliced or diced, to oil, stir for about 30 seconds.
- Add veggies to pan, stir-fry until done, about 3-4 minutes, remove and set aside.
- Add remaining 2 tablespoon oil to your pan, allow to heat up, about 30 seconds.
- Roughly crush the pepper corns, add to the pan, stir for about 1 minute.
- Remaining fresh chillies, add them to the pan, stir for 1 minute.
- Add beef to pan, stir-fry until brown (not done, just browned), 2 - 3 minutes.
- Add peanuts to meat, keep stirring, 1 minute.
- Add veggies back in, keep stirring, 2 minutes to warm through..
- Give sauce one final stir, add to pan, keep stirring.
- When the sauce has reduced and thickened, reduce heat to medium low, stir 1 minute to allow heat to reduce in pan..
- Add cilantro and green onions, stir for 1 more minute.
- Serve. We usually serve ours over rice, but I could see this over noodles also..
