Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin
- 3 tablespoons gluten-free tamari soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
- 2 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 100 grams snow peas
- 3 stalks green onions, sliced
- 4 cups cooked white or brown rice
Instructions
Thinly slice the beef sirloin into bite-sized strips. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef with 2 tablespoons of gluten-free tamari soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Mix well and marinate for 10 minutes.
While the beef marinates, prepare the vegetables: slice the red and green bell peppers, julienne the carrot, and trim the snow peas. Mince the garlic, grate the ginger, and slice the green onions.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of gluten-free tamari soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, 1 teaspoon of brown sugar, and 1/4 cup of water. Set this sauce mixture aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the garlic, ginger, and red chili flakes, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced bell peppers, julienned carrot, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the ingredients evenly.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish the stir-fry with sliced green onions.
Serve the spicy beef stir-fry over cooked white or brown rice, and enjoy!
