Savory Beef and Bok Choy Stir-Fry Recipe
This recipe delivers a flavorful and quick weeknight meal. The tender beef is complemented by the slightly sweet bok choy, creating a balanced and delicious stir-fry.
Ingredients:
• 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• 1 bunch bok choy, stems and leaves separated and chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 inch ginger, minced
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1/4 cup beef broth
• 2 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tbsp dark soy sauce (for color)
• Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Marinate the beef: In a bowl, combine the sliced beef with cornstarch, soy sauce, and sesame oil. Mix well and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Stir-fry the beef: Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until browned and cooked through (about 3-5 minutes). Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.
3. Sauté aromatics: Add the remaining 1 tbsp of vegetable oil to the wok. Add the onion, garlic, and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant (about 1 minute).
4. Stir-fry bok choy: Add the bok choy stems to the wok and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Then, add the bok choy leaves, bell pepper and stir-fry for another minute until slightly wilted.
5. Combine and simmer: Return the cooked beef to the wok. Add the beef broth, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and dark soy sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened slightly.
6. Garnish and serve: Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot over rice or noodles.
Tips and Variations:
• For a spicier stir-fry, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of chili garlic sauce.
• Other vegetables like mushrooms, bell peppers, or carrots can be added along with the bok choy.
• If you don't have Shaoxing rice wine, you can substitute with dry sherry or even a little extra soy sauce.
• Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preference. Some prefer a sweeter stir-fry.
