How to Make Szechuan Beef Or Deer
- In a large bowl, marinate the beef or deer in 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of Shaoxing rice wine, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon of ginger for at least 30 minutes.
- While the meat marinates, prepare the vegetables. Dice 1 red bell pepper, 1 green bell pepper, 1 onion, and 2 cloves of garlic.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the marinated beef or deer and stir-fry until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
- Remove the beef or deer from the wok and set aside.
- Add the diced vegetables to the wok and stir-fry until tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of Szechuan peppercorns (or to taste), 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes (or more, to taste), and 1/4 cup of water.
- Pour the sauce over the vegetables and bring to a simmer.
- Return the beef or deer to the wok and stir to coat with the sauce.
- Simmer for 2-3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
- Serve hot over rice. Add Tabasco to your liking for extra heat.
- Garnish with chopped green onions (optional).
