Beef and Snow Peas image

A popular Chinese take out dish you can make at home! This Beef and Snow Peas recipe is an easy to make dinner that's packed with flavor. Sherry gives the sauce a nice tang. We liked the crunch from the snow peas, too. Very yummy!

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 c soy sauce (use low sodium if desired)
2 Tbsp corn starch
2 Tbsp dry sherry (I have also used port wine)
2 tsp sugar
1 lb flank steak (thinly sliced and cut across the grain)
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 lb snow peas
sliced water chestnuts (optional)
chopped onion (optional)
sliced mushrooms (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Combine soy sauce, corn starch, sherry, and sugar in a large bowl. Add meat, stirring to coat with the marinade. Set aside.
  • 2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add salt. Add snow peas and stir fry for 1 minute. Remove to a platter.
  • 3. If adding onion, mushroom, and/or water chestnuts, this is where I do that as well.
  • 4. Add more oil to wok or pan, if necessary. Then add beef mixture and stir fry 3 minutes or until meat loses its red color.
  • 5. Add snow peas to the beef and heat gently.
  • 6. Serve over rice or as a side and enjoy!
