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.
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
