🧠 A LITTLE HISTORY
Pepper Steak originated as a Chinese-American adaptation of stir-fried beef dishes from Cantonese cuisine. When Chinese immigrants brought their cooking to the U.S., they adjusted it to local ingredients — substituting bell peppers for Chinese vegetables, using beef more generously, and sweetening the sauce just a bit.
What was born? A dish that screams with flavor, yet comforts like home — a marriage of cultures in every bite.
🥩 INGREDIENTS (Serves 4)
🥢 For the Steak Marinade:
- 1 lb (450g) flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
🌶️ For the Stir-Fry:
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil (or peanut oil)
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
🍯 For the Sauce:
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce (optional but recommended)
- 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp rice vinegar or Chinese black vinegar
- 1/2 tbsp brown sugar
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1/2 cup beef broth (or water)
- 1 tsp cornstarch (mixed with 1 tbsp cold water)
🔪 METHOD: THE FORMATION OF FLAVOR
🍖 1. Marinate the Beef
- Mix sliced steak with soy sauce, cornstarch, sesame oil, and black pepper.
- Let sit for 15–30 minutes. This softens the fibers and locks in flavor.
🔥 2. Prepare the Sauce
- In a small bowl, combine all sauce ingredients except the cornstarch slurry.
- Set aside.
🍳 3. Stir-Fry the Magic
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat.
- Sear the marinated beef for about 2–3 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.
- Add remaining oil. Sauté onions and peppers until slightly softened but still crisp — about 3 minutes.
- Add garlic and ginger, stir for 30 seconds (fragrance unlocked 🔓).
🥢 4. Combine & Simmer
- Return beef to the wok. Pour in the sauce.
- Once bubbling, stir in cornstarch slurry. Let it thicken for 1–2 minutes.
- Toss everything together until glossy and coated.
