How to Make Beef Szechuan
- Cut 1 lb beef sirloin steak into bite-sized strips.
- Steam 1 cup sliced carrots until tender (about 5-7 minutes).
- In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp sherry, 4 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp hot bean sauce, 1 tbsp cornstarch, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tsp ginger (grated), 1 tsp garlic (minced), and 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes. Set aside.
- Preheat a wok or large skillet over high heat.
- Add 2 tbsp cooking oil, then 1 tbsp chili oil.
- Add 1 cup sliced carrots, 1 cup snow pea pods, and 1 cup sliced mushrooms. Stir-fry until crisp-tender (about 3-4 minutes).
- Remove vegetables from wok and set aside.
- Add remaining 1 tbsp cooking oil to the wok. Stir-fry beef until browned (about 3-4 minutes). Push beef to the side of the wok.
- Pour sauce into the center of the wok. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly.
- Stir in the cooked vegetables and beef. Add 1/2 cup roasted peanuts. Cook until heated through and sauce has thickened (about 1 minute).
