Chinese Pepper Beef Cubes
AMAZING Chinese Pepper Beef Cubes – this easy to make Chinese recipe is tasty and will have your family begging for it! Serve beef and vegetables over white rice for a healthy authentic Chinese meal!
Do you have a favorite Chinese dish? I’m a big fan of Chinese soups (like salted pork and cabbage), Chicken and Broccoli and I’m always down for Lo Mein. One thing I always love in my dishes is a ton of vegetables covered in that delicious Chinese sauce they always smoother them in. It doesn’t matter if it’s peppers, broccoli, carrots, water chestnuts or something else, I can’t say no to a yummy vegetable.
Right now being Winter I am craving fresh vegetables. I am missing the green pepper overload from the garden. I can’t wait to pick broccoli in the Spring. Thankfully we still have enough carrots left from Fall so I have those to survive on. Over the weekend it was freezing (literally). The wind was harsh, my knees were shaking and my gloves didn’t feel like they were doing much of anything. One thing I craved when I got home was a warm fresh meal, something that would take me out of the Winter blues.
Chinese Pepper Beef Cubes recipe
In this dish the beef cubes and vegetables are going to be the perfect combination with the sauce. Served over a bowl of hot rice (or noodles) with a egg roll on the side (of course!) this might become your new dinner favorite!
I love serving this dish alongside some vegetable egg rolls too!
Go ahead and give this a recipe a shot, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do!

My favourite chinese dish has to be anything sweet and sour. I am not a huge fan of Chinese food, but this sounds really good.
What a fun post and a yummy recipe, Pamela! I’m originally from Hong Kong and we have lots of traditional Chinese food for Chinese New Year (prepared by my mom) but we love Chinese-American dishes like these! The sweet and sour combo, the sauce, the rice with it, is just irresistible! It’s great of you to make and share this!
I cannot get enough Asian food! Chinese, Japanese, Vietnamese, I love it all! This beef is perfectly savory just the way I like it, and looks like the perfect weeknight meal!
I love Chinese food and trying to recreate take-out dishes at home. Orange chicken is one of my personal favorites along with any fried rice. This beef dish looks tasty!
We eat a ton of Asian food in my house. I’d much rather make it at home than order out. This Chinese beef sounds yummy! I can’t wait to try it!
Yummy love Chinese Food, well Asian food in general. Looks delicious.
ooh waw, a tasty easy speedy dinner that I also love! Yum!
This looks delicious!
I’ve been looking for the perfect dinner recipe for Chinese New Year! I think I’ve found the meal! I love the flavours, Pamela! So yummy!
My favorite Chinese food changes. I go in obsessive streaks of only ordering lo-mein, or General’s Tso chicken (that was my favorite in college), currently loving Mongolian beef or Cashew Chicken. This dish looks like a cinch to make at home. Yum!
My fave Chinese dish is sweet & sour pork, I know…. kinda lame! I havent actually tried authentic Chinese foods, but I hear the real deal is very different than the Aussie variety. I will have a hunt around for this brand at my local. 🙂
Yum! I love making dishes like this at home! This beef dish sounds perfect!
i dont eat beef or pork so anytime there is vegetable rolls involved, i get excited 🙂
Yum, this looks incredible! Thank you for the recipe!

The beef looks very tender and delicious!
The weather has been brutal here too and this looks like a fabulous meal to sit down to after being out in the cold. Those egg rolls look perfect with your yummy beef dish! Love all that sauce over the pretty veggies!
Ha and I officially want lunch and it’s only 10… Awesome. LOL!
I love chinese food, too! And I would have to say that egg rolls are my favorite…and sesame chicken 🙂 These look delish!
Oh, I love how easy this dish is Pamela and using the frozen vegs saves so much time.
It’s been so long since I had e Tai Pei® egg rolls or spring rolls! Thanks for igniting a craving Pamela! Now if only I could blink and a plate of your Chinese pepper beef could appear on my table 😉
I absolutely adore egg rolls! They are one of the best things about Chinese food. Your pepper beef just completes the meal – do you deliver?? 🙂
Hahaha, I wish Mary Frances! I’d trade for some of your baked goods!
This i most definitely savory and amazing dinner. I think I might have to change what I’m having for dinner tonight 😉
Oooo that looks like a tasty dinner. Perfect for these cold winter nights. I agree with you that an egg roll definitely finishes off the meal perfectly to make it feel complete. Yum! #client
This looks delicious! I also love Chinese food to warm up with and it’s always extra better with an egg roll on the side. 🙂
As much as I love fresh veggies, I love meals like this full of cooked ones — it’s major comfort food! This would be so much better than the take out Chinese — it looks delicious, Pamela!
What a delicious looking dish! Thanks for sharing!
It looks so delicious!
Have a nice day!

Pamela, I am so hungry now after looking at your egg rolls photo! I always crave Asian food and need to make your Chinese Pepper Beef Cubes with plenty of vegetables. Yum! A perfect winter meal. Thanks for sharing and I hope you’re having a great week!
