Directions
Ingredients for Grass-Fed, Grain-Finished Pepper Steak:
- 1 pound skirt steak
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, cored and sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, cored and sliced
Sauce for Grass-Fed, Grain-Finished Pepper Steak:
- ¾ cup water
- ¼ cup honey or brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
Instructions for Grass-Fed, Grain-Finished Pepper Steak:
- In a bowl, combine all sauce ingredients (except cornstarch). Add skirt steak, ensuring it's coated well with the sauce, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- After marinating, remove the beef from the sauce, but be sure to reserve the sauce for later use.
- Heat a skillet or wok over medium heat and add vegetable oil.
- Add sliced onions and peppers to the skillet and stir-fry for about 5 minutes or until they're tender and slightly caramelized. Then, transfer them to a plate.
- In the same skillet, add the marinated beef, distributing it evenly. Cook for about 1 minute without stirring to achieve a nice sear on the steak. Then, stir the beef and continue cooking until it's browned, which should take around 2-3 minutes.
- Once the beef is cooked, remove it from the skillet and place it on the plate with the peppers.
- Whisk the cornstarch into the reserved marinade until it's well combined. Pour this mixture into the skillet and whisk continuously while bringing it to a boil. Let it boil for about 2 minutes until it thickens.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the cooked onions, peppers, and steak back into the skillet. Simmer for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
- Serve the grass-fed, grain-finished pepper steak over rice, spooning the sauce generously on top.
Enjoy your delicious homemade pepper steak!
