Green Pepper Steak image

A good family dish made with economical beef, either chuck or round, sliced into thin strips and then cooked until tender. You can prepare the beef ahead and refrigerate just before adding the vegetables and finish cooking later. If you want to halve this recipe, just use half of the ingredients, but you may need to add some water. To make 8 servings, you would double the ingredients but reduce the water to 1-1/4 cups and add another 1/2 T. cornstarch.

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 lb beef chuck, fat trimmed or 1 lb beef, round fat trimmed
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 garlic clove
1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 cup vegetable oil or 1/4 cup canola oil
1 cup thinly sliced green onion
1 cup red bell peppers (or use a combination of both) or 1 cup green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch squares (or use a combination of both)
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon cornstarch
