How to Make Asian Beef With Snow Peas
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice wine, 1 tablespoon brown sugar (or Splenda to taste), and 1 tablespoon cornstarch.
- Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon minced ginger and 2 cloves minced garlic; stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add 1 pound thinly sliced beef steak (sirloin or flank steak recommended) and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until evenly browned.
- Add 1 cup snow peas and stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
- Pour in the soy sauce mixture, bring to a boil, and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and snow peas.
- Taste and adjust seasoning as needed (add more soy sauce for saltiness, brown sugar/Splenda for sweetness, or rice wine for depth).
- Serve immediately over steamed rice or hot egg noodles.
