A delicious pepper steak recipe served with boiled white rice — easy and made from items I've already got in my cupboards. My mother clipped this recipe from somewhere and it became a specialty of mine; however, I've been unable to find the original source.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef top sirloin steak
  • 0.25 cups soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 0.5 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil , divided
  • 1 red onion , cut into 1-inch squares
  • 1 green bell pepper , cut into 1-inch squares
  • 2 tomatoes , cut into wedges

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice steak into 1/2-inch thick slices across the grain.

  2. 2

    Whisk together soy sauce, sugar, cornstarch, and ginger in a bowl until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is smooth. Place steak slices into the marinade, and stir until well-coated.

  3. 3

    Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook steak strips in batches in hot oil so as not to crowd the pan. Cook and stir until well-browned, about 3 minutes, and remove steak from the wok to a bowl. Repeat with remaining steak, adding more oil as needed, and set the cooked meat aside.

  4. 4

    Return cooked steak strips to the hot wok, and stir in onion. Toss steak and onion together until onion begins to soften, about 2 minutes, then stir in green pepper.

  5. 5

    Cook and stir the mixture until peppers have turned bright green and started to become tender, about 2 minutes more, then add tomatoes.

  6. 6

    Stir everything together to mix and blend flavors, and serve.
