Chinese Pepper Beef recipe

This Chinese Pepper Beef recipe is so good! The beef slices are tender, and covered in a homemade savory sauce! We also add in frozen vegetables to make it super easy! Served over a bowl of hot rice (or noodles) with an egg roll on the side this might become your new dinner favorite!

Tip: Looking to make a whole buffet? Also try my Chinese Chicken and Broccoli, Takeout General Tso’s Chicken and Homemade Wonton Soup too!

What kind of beef should I use?

I recommend using beef cubes, or thin flank steak. You can also use sirloin steak or skirt steak.

What kind of frozen vegetables should I use?

Look for the frozen vegetables labeled as “Asian medley” or “stir fry blend” in the frozen food section. Alternatively, you can really use any mixture of frozen vegetables if you have a couple open bags in the freezer you need to get rid of.

How to make this beef pepper stir fry

Brown the beef in a skillet, cooking until it’s fully cooked.

tender beef no plate.

Make the sauce by mixing green peppers, frozen vegetables, tomato paste, beef broth, soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, ginger and black pepper together in the skillet. You’ll want to cook this until the sauce thickens.

Add beef back into the skillet with the sauce and simmer. This will let the beef soak up the yummy sauce!

Serve pepper beef and vegetables over rice or with lo mein noodles.

Recipe Tweaks

  • Don’t want to use steak? You can use pork tenderloin or chicken if you’d like.
  • You can use fresh vegetables if you want! Steam fresh broccoli and carrots to soften them up before adding to them to the skillet. You can also add baby corn, sugar snap peas, cabbage and beansprouts to the meal!

Ingredients

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 pound beef cubes or thin flank steak
  • 1 large green bell pepper chopped into thin slices
  • 10 ounce bag frozen asian medley vegetables (any frozen vegetable medley will do)

Instructions

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add beef, stirring often, cooking until it's browned and completely cooked and no longer pink inside – about 10 minutes. Remove beef from skillet and set aside.

    Could I use ground (powdered) ginger instead of fresh ginger root? If so how much would I use?
