How to Make Beef Mandarin And Bok Choy Stir Fry

  1. Slice the 1 lb sirloin steak into thin strips and place in a bowl.
  2. Add the 2 crushed garlic cloves, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, and 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger.
  3. Pour in 1/4 cup soy sauce.
  4. Add 1 tbsp dry cooking sherry.
  5. Stir well, cover, and refrigerate for at least several hours or preferably overnight.
  6. Heat 1 tbsp of the vegetable oil in a non-stick wok or large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
  7. Add the 1/2 thinly sliced onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
  8. Add the remaining 1 tbsp vegetable oil to the wok and increase heat to high. Add the marinated beef strips, stirring constantly, until browned on all sides and the juices are sealed (about 3-4 minutes).
  9. Reduce heat slightly and return the cooked onion to the pan.
  10. Add 1/2 cup mandarin orange juice and cook for a few minutes, until the liquid is slightly reduced.
  11. Slowly add 1/4 cup chicken stock, stirring constantly, and continue to cook until the liquid is almost completely reduced.
  12. Add the chopped bok choy and 1/2 cup mandarin orange segments. Reduce heat to medium-low and stir-fry gently until the bok choy is tender-crisp (about 2-3 minutes).
  13. Add the 1 cup trimmed snow peas and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
  14. Remove from heat and serve immediately over 4 servings of steamed rice.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
