Stir Fried Beef and Snow Peas
Stir Fried Beef and Snow Peas-You are going to do it better than take out and faster than home delivery AGAIN!
“Your body is not a temple, it’s an amusement park. Enjoy the ride.” –Anthony Bourdain
If you don’t have any pre-cooked rice on hand start a pot of salted water set at high. If you are not using minute rice wait to start the beef until the rice has just started to get pliable when given the nibble test. When you are using minute rice just go ahead with the beef when you put the water on.
Cut the beef into strips or just buy some that are ready and waiting for you in the grocery store. I found them in mine and I’ll bet that yours has them too.
Now for the Stir Fried Part
Put a skillet on at medium high and eyeball just enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan. When it gets hot put in the beef. Stir it often as it cooks. As it is cooking chop up the garlic. Add the black pepper, red pepper flakes, sesame seeds, garlic, soy sauce and ginger. No salt! The soy sauce has enough to do the job.
When the beef is well browned all over add the snow peas.
Stir in the peas and keep stirring often as the peas cook. When they have turned from the pale green that they were when you put them in to a bright green they are done. They won’t take long. Like 3-5 minutes. They are best if crisp, not mushy.
Serve up your Stir Fried Beef and Snow Peas!
You are good! Top it all off with a little more soy sauce and enjoy!
