Well, its taken me a few days to get Thursday's dinner up but here it is!! :)
I had watched an Episode of 30 Minute Meals where Rachael Ray makes this recipe but on the show she puts the stir-fry ontop of ranch mashed potatoes. Now call me crazy but a sweet n sour stir-fry over mashed potatoes just doesn't cry out "MAKE ME" in my mind so I decided to go the more traditional route and poured it over brown rice instead!
The sweet n sour sauce that I made was great and I was a little shocked because all it is, is ketchup, mustard, brown sugar and soy sauce! YUM!
This is a VERY quick and easy meal...once you have all the meat/vegetables chopped the actual cooking time is like 10 minutes for the whole meal~including the rice! I do suggest that you prep everything before you start cooking cause it does go so fast once you start you will want everything ready to dump in the pot.
Sweet N Sour Sirloin Stir-Fry
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pound piece sirloin, 1-inch thick
- Salt
- 3 tablespoons vegetable, peanut or canola oil
- 2 large red bell peppers, seeded and sliced
- 1 large green bell pepper, seeded and sliced
- 1 bunch scallions, cut into 2 to 3-inch pieces on bias, greens and whites
- 2 cups shelled frozen edamame
- 3 tablespoons brown sugar
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/4 cup yellow mustard
- 1/4 cup ketchup
Directions
Pop the meat in the freezer for a few minutes to stiffen it up for slicing.
Halve the steak lengthwise then very thinly slice the meat. Heat the oil in a very large skillet over high heat. When oil wafts smoke and ripples, add the meat and stir-fry until caramelized 3 minutes. Add peppers and stir-fry 2 minutes then add in scallions and edamame for 2 minutes more. Stir together the sugar, soy, mustard and ketchup and pour over stir-fry the last minute of cooking. Season, to taste, if necessary.
Here is my final plate! :)
I couldn't find frozen Edamame when I went grocery shopping (dumb neighborhood walmart!) so I just substituted frozen snap peas and it worked out fine! All in all it was a good meal and a nice change from the usual chicken or pasta dishes that Danny loves and ALWAYS wants to have! :)
Have a great week ya'll!!
