Big Country Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 Gonna try a recipe I got from Men's Health. Slice sirloin very thin. Add in some chopped bell peppers and onions. Mix with a little soy, garlis and a few other ingredients (don't have recipe in front of me). Mix it all together and let the flavors belend for an hour or so. Then, in a cast iron skillet, heat some EVOO (or, as they said, for a more traditional Korean flavo, toasted sesame oil with a splash of rice wine vinegar) onder medium high heat. Once that gets hot, pour in the steak, pepeprs and all the sauce in the pan and sautee until the steak is starting to brown and the veggies start giving off their water.. about 3-5 minutes. Serve on top of a bed of brown rice and voila... .healthy tastiness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bier Meister Posted November 30, 2005 Share Posted November 30, 2005 (edited) sounds awesome. the toasted sesame oil is pretty intense (plus i find it expensive to cook with). a couple of things i do are: - use peanut oil to get the asian flavor - drizzle the sesame oil in with the marinade, or drizzle after cooking.

Big Country Posted November 30, 2005 Author Share Posted November 30, 2005 I've used seasme oil a couple times, and I totally agree, a very intense flavor that I am not sos sure I like that much. I've used it in lieu of EVOO or vegetable il when doing quick stir fry type dishes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyb7 Posted December 1, 2005 Share Posted December 1, 2005 (edited) I actually use the hot sesame oil to give my stir fry a good kick. By the way, not sure if you have any Trader Joes supermarkets near you, but their flash frozen asian stir fry veggies for meals like mentioned above rock.

Big Country Posted December 1, 2005 Author Share Posted December 1, 2005 So, Cooked it up last night. When I got home I was out of olive oil and the soy sauce the recipe caleld for, so Iwent with the toasted sesame oil and rice wine vinegar, and Isubstituted Worcestshire in lieu of the soy. Not bad at all. I'll post the recipe here for anyone interested later on when I get a chance to copy it, but essentially it is thinly sliced sirloin, chopped bell peppers, chopped onion, some garlic, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, crushed red pepper and a little sugar all tossed together and then cooked in a medium-hot cast iron skillet and served over a bed of rice. I made 4 servings, so I have another batch for lunch today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Country Posted December 1, 2005 Author Share Posted December 1, 2005 KOREAN-STYLE PEPPER STEAK You'll need: 1/2 lb sirloin, sliced diagonally into thin strips 1 c bite-size pieces red or green bell pepper (or 1/2 c of each) 1 c bite-size pieces onion 2 Tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce Plus: 1 tsp sugar; 1 1/2 tsp olive oil; 1 clove garlic, crushed; 1 tsp red-pepper flakes How to make it: 1. Dump all the ingredients into a large ziplock plastic bag. Go James Bond on it--well shaken, not stirred . No, really throttle it. You want the soy sauce and oil to permeate everything in the bag.2. Pour the meat, sauce, and vegetables into a medium-hot cast-iron skillet, stirring frequently until the meat is seared and the vegetables begin to lose their water (about 2 to 3 minutes). Extra credit: For a more authentic Korean-style flavor, use toasted sesame oil instead of olive oil and add 1 Tbsp rice-wine vinegar. Eat with: 1 c Uncle Ben's Ready Rice, Whole Grain Brown (the kind you can microwave in 90 seconds) Makes 2 servings Per serving, including rice: 623 calories, 37 grams (g) protein, 58 g carbohydrates, 27 g fat (9 g saturated), 4 g fiber, 604 milligrams (mg) sodium Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
