Broccoli Beef With Red Bell Peppers And Garlic Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook for 8 to 10 minutes or until al dente; drain.
• Steam broccoli with 2 tablespoons water in microwave for 6-7 minutes.
• In 10-inch skillet, heat olive oil and butter over low heat. Stir in garlic (more or less to suit your tastes) and red pepper slices; saute gently.
• Drain broccoli and add to skillet. Sprinkle lightly with garlic salt and saute broccoli and peppers until soft.
• Toss vegetable mixture with hot pasta. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese.

Steps:

• In 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat.
• Stir garlic into hot oil. Immediately add broccoli, bell pepper, onion and water. Cook 4 to 6 minutes, stirring constantly, until broccoli is crisp-tender and onion is beginning to brown. Stir in salt.
• Place in serving dish; top with cheese.

Steps:

• For the chile paste: Finely chop the chiles (remove the seeds if you want to curb their heat a little). Sprinkle some sea salt over the chiles on the cutting board, then mash in the garlic to form a paste. Mix with the harrisa in a small container. Cover and store in the refrigerator.
• For the beef and broccoli: Bring a couple inches of water to a boil in a saucepan and add some salt. Add the broccoli rabe and cook for 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the broccoli rabe to a large bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Drain well and pat dry. Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet with a rounded bottom over high heat. Add the onions and bell peppers and stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic, ginger and 1 teaspoon of the chile paste and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add the sherry. Dissolve the cornstarch in a small amount of the stock, then add it to the skillet along with the remaining stock. Stir to thicken a minute, then add the hoisin sauce, soy sauce, broccoli rabe and short ribs. Cook until heated through. (If not serving the stir-fry immediately, cool and then store it in the refrigerator. Reheat over medium heat with a splash of water to loosen it up.) Before serving, cook the rice according to the package instructions. Add the lime zest. Serve the beef stir-fry over the rice, with lime wedges and the remaining chile paste on the side. Garnish with the scallions and cilantro.
• Preheat the oven to 500 degrees F. Bring the short ribs to room temperature. Pat the ribs dry, then sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper and drizzle with EVOO. Arrange the ribs on a broiler pan and roast until well browned, 12 to 15 minutes. Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons EVOO in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the anchovies and stir to melt them into the oil. Add the garlic, bay leaves, onions and fennel bulb, and season with pepper. Stir for a few minutes to develop some color on the bottom of the pan, then add the tomato paste, raisins and cloves. Stir for a minute or 2 more, then add the wine and cook until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Add the short ribs to the Dutch oven and stir to coat with the sauce. Cover and roast in the oven until the ribs are very tender, 2 1/2 to 2 3/4 hours. Remove the ribs to a platter and cover with foil. Reduce the sauce 10 to 15 minutes more. Add the ribs (on or off the bone) to the sauce. Yield: 6 servings

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, bring the rice and water to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes.
• In a skillet over medium heat, cook and stir the ground beef until evenly browned. Drain, and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Stir in the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, parsley, garlic and ginger. Season with red pepper, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir until tender.
• Return the beef to the skillet. Mix in the beef stock, soy sauce, chile paste, and Worcestershire sauce. Cook and stir until thickened and heated through. Serve over the cooked rice.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine flour, broth, sugar, and soy sauce. Stir until sugar and flour are dissolved.
• In a large skillet or wok over high heat, cook and stir beef 2 to 4 minutes, or until browned. Stir in broth mixture, ginger, garlic, and broccoli. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat. Simmer 5 to 10 minutes, or until sauce thickens.

Steps:

• Combine soy sauce, sherry, cornstarch, and sugar in medium bowl. Stir in beef and set aside for about 15 minutes. Heat large nonstick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp of the oil. Swirl to coat. Add half the beef in a single layer and leave until seared, about 1 minute. Stir fry beef until no longer pink, about 1 minute. Remove. Add 1 tsp oil and repeat with remaining beef. Add remaining 2 tsp oil to pan. Add broccoli, bell pepper, and mushrooms. Stir fry 2 minutes. Make a well in the center and add white part of scallions, ginger, garlic, and pepper flakes. Stir fry with vegetables 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup water and cover pan until broccoli is just done, 3 minutes. If cooking in a wok, use a large lid, setting it right down into the wok, if necessary, to cover and steam vegetables. Return beef to pan and add stir fry sauce. Cook until sauce thickens slightly, 1-2 minutes. Sprinkle with scallion greens and serve.

Steps:

• Slice meat into strips, which measure about 3 inches long, 1 inch wide and 1/4 inch thick. Place in a bowl and add the vinegar, sugar, soy, 1 TBS water and 1 tsp cornstarch. Mix well and marinate for 30 minutes.
• In a large wok, heat 1 1/2 cups oil to high heat. When the oil starts to smoke, pour the meat into the smoking hot oil and allow to sear and caramelize for about a minute before touching it. After a minute or so, give it a stir to break it up and so that the meat can cook through, about another minute. Remove beef and place on a paper towel lined plate to drain. Remove remaining oil from the wok, and wipe down with a paper towel.
• Add 1 TBS vegetable oil, plus the garlic and onion, stir for about 1 minute or until fragrant, then add the vegetables and 1/4 cup water. Stir for a few seconds, then cover wok with aluminum foil so that the vegetables can steam (about 2 minutes).
• In a small bowl, combine the oyster sauce, soy sauce and 1 TBS water. Pour into wok, followed by the cornstarch and water mixture. Allow to bubble and thicken before stirring. Stir around to coat everything and serve hot (serving suggestion: with rice).
