Pepper Beefless Steak


















Peppers were taking over my kitchen so I scoured the internet for a pepper stew recipe and came across a Pepper Steak recipe that sounded fast and easy. I replaced the meat with Trader Joe's Beefless strips, replaced yellow pepper with an orange pepper and bumped up the garlic.


Pepper Beeffless Steak
1
Pkg. Beefless Strips (Trader Joe)
3
tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1
tablespoon cornstarch
1
tablespoon brown sugar
11/2
teaspoons sesame oil
1/4
teaspoon red pepper flakes
3
tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1
green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1
red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1
orange or yellow bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1
red onion, cut into 1-inch pieces
3
cloves garlic, finely chopped
Hot cooked rice
Combine soy sauce, cornstarch, brown sugar, sesame oil and red pepper flakes in medium bowl; stir until smooth. Add beefless strips and toss to coat; set aside.
Heat wok or sauté pan over high heat about 1 minute or until hot. Drizzle 1 tablespoon oil into wok/sauté pan and heat 30 seconds. Add bell pepper strips, stir-fry until crisp-tender. Remove to large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon oil and add beefless mixture to wok/pan and stir fry until browned. Remove strips to bowl with bell peppers.
Add onion to pan and stir fry about 3 minutes or until softened. Add garlic and continue cooking for 30 seconds. Return peppers, beefless strips and juices to pan. Cook until heated through. Spoon rice into serving dish and top with pepper mixture.
