Mongolian Beef

This is a spicy little recipe that I found among my many travels through the worm hole I call net surfing.  Packed with spicy, a little heat and loads of flavor, it's the perfect dish when Chinese takeout isn't in your budget.

Mongolian Beef
Make 2 to 4 servings (depending on how hungry and how much rice)

1 pound beef steak, grilled and sliced thin
2 teaspoons olive oil
6 to 8 button mushrooms, sliced
1/2 onion, sliced
1 green or red bell pepper, sliced
1 teaspoon minced ginger
2 to 3 cloves garlic minced
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup water
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 tablespoon red chili garlic sauce
2 green onions, sliced

In a large skillet or wok heat oil, then stir fry mushrooms onions and bell peppers until tender crisp.  Stir in ginger and garlic and cook a minute longer.  Add soy sauce, water, brown sugar and chili sauce and simmer 3 to 4 minutes, until sauce begins to thicken.  Stir in grilled steak and toss well to coat.  Heat until meat is warmed through.  Serve over cooked rice and garnish with slice green onions.

  1. Do you think I could slice some Elk and saute it then cook the rest of the dish? I'm thinking that this sounds pretty good and easy without usuing a mix.

  3. Vandy - Elk would work just fine and of course you can saute it.

    Rice Palette - I like to keep the recipes easy with ingredients that are common and easy to find.
