Description
This quick and flavorful stir-fry combines tender beef, earthy mushrooms, and crisp green beans in a savory black pepper sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp black pepper, coarsely ground
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil, divided
- 8 oz green beans, trimmed and halved
- 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 1 tsp sugar
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- In a bowl, combine sliced beef with soy sauce, cornstarch, and black pepper. Toss to coat and set aside for 10 minutes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add green beans and stir-fry for 2 minutes, until bright green and slightly charred. Remove and set aside.
- Add remaining oil to the wok. Sear the beef in a single layer, cooking 1-2 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside with green beans.
- Add mushrooms to the wok and cook undisturbed for 1 minute, then stir-fry for 2 minutes until golden. Add garlic and cook 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Return green beans and beef to the wok. Pour in oyster sauce, beef broth, sugar, and red pepper flakes if using. Stir-fry everything together for 1-2 minutes until sauce thickens and coats the ingredients.
- Serve immediately over steamed rice.
Notes
For extra heat, add more black pepper or a dash of chili oil. You can substitute chicken or tofu for the beef.
