Beef Stir-Fry

🧂 Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds skirt steak
• and freshly ground pepper
• 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 serrano chile pepper
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (1 to 2 limes)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 bunch scallions
• 6 ounces fresh mushrooms
• 1/4 pound snow peas or green beans
• 1 12-ounce can baby corn
• 1 red bell pepper

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1

   Season the steak with salt and pepper. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, chile pepper, sugar and lime juice until the sugar is dissolved. Add the beef, toss to coat and set aside.

2. 2

   In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the oil until shimmering, about 1 minute. Add the beef and cook, stirring, until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside. Allow the liquid in the pan to reduce until thickened, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and scallions and cook 1 minute more. Add the mushrooms and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add the snow peas, baby corn and bell pepper and continue cooking until all the vegetables are crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Return the beef to the skillet and toss to combine.
