20-minute quick Chinese-style beef stir-fried with black pepper is a very \u201cChinese\u201d-style stir-frying recipe using essential ingredients, including beef, onion, green peppers, and ground black pepper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Black pepper sauce<\/a> and beef have been the best partners worldwide. But the Chinese style is a super tender stir-frying with a thick sauce. Firstly, we marinate the beef with the basic flavors and a layer of starch to protect the beef from being overcooked in stir-frying, and make super tender fried beef strips. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The same as my other black pepper recipes, I match it with red onion and fresh peppers. <\/p>\n\n\n

How to Marinating beef for stir-frying <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Marinating plays a vital role in tender meat. Beef absorbs the taste and flavors in the marinating process, giving it a foundational flavor (\u5e95\u5473). Meanwhile starch is applied in order to keep the juice inside by forming a protecting shell. Lastly, vegetable oil is used as a protective agent against cornstarch and prevents them from sticking together or sticking to the bottom of the work. Cut the beef steak into 1cm wide strips. Marinate with all the marinating seasonings <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cook’s Note<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. The vegetable oil should be mixed just before frying. The cold oil will protect our sauces and starch.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. After spreading the beef strips to the pan, let them stay for <\/strong>5-6 seconds until the starch finishes gelatinizing;<\/strong> otherwise, the marinating tissues might be separated from the meat. In addition, be gentle and quick throughout<\/span> the whole process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. If you use a larger pan, you may need more oil to cover the bottom. After frying the beef strips, transfer the extra oil out and leave any around 1 tablespoon of oil in to fry the onion and peppers.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Step-by-step instruction <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Cut the beef steak into 1cm wide strips. Marinate with all the marinating seasonings except sesame oil for 15 minutes. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
