Sweet And Spicy Hoisin Steak With Green Beans Recipes

Steps:

• Whisk hoisin sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and garlic together in a bowl. Set aside.
• Bring about 4 cups water to a boil in a large deep skillet. Add green beans and boil for 3 minutes. Drain green beans and run under cold water for 1 minute.
• Bring hoisin mixture to a simmer in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add green beans.
• Saute until desired doneness, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Arrange a steamer basket in a pot over boiling water, and steam the green beans 3 to 4 minutes.
• In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, garlic, garlic chili sauce, and honey.
• Heat the canola oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the green beans, and fry for 3 to 5 minutes. Pour in the soy sauce mixture. Continue cooking and stirring 2 minutes, or until the liquid is nearly evaporated. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400º.
• Stir hoisin sauce, orange juice, soy sauce and olive oil together in a large bowl. Add green beans, toss to coat, and season with salt and pepper. (Hoisin sauce is very salty, so be careful not to over-salt the green beans.).
• Spread beans in an even layer on a baking sheet with sides and roast for 15 to 20 minutes, until they are soft and slightly shriveled.
• Sprinkle beans with chives and toss gently. Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle with pan juices, and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Light a grill.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the 1/4 cup of oil.
• Add the shallots, garlic, ginger, crushed red pepper and cilantro and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 7 minutes.
• Add the hoisin, soy sauce and chicken stock, raise the heat to moderately high and boil until thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the honey.
• Remove from the heat and stir in the butter until blended; keep warm.
• Generously rub the steaks and onions with oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Grill the steaks over high heat for 4 minutes per side, or until nicely browned and medium-rare.
• Transfer the steaks to a carving board and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Grill the onions for 4 minutes per side, or until charred.
• Transfer the onions to a platter.
• Thickly slice the steaks and arrange on the platter.
• Serve with the steak sauce, baked potatoes with choice of toppings and haricots verts.

Steps:

• Optional step for firmer tofu: Blot the tofu dry, wrap in a clean kitchen towel and place a cutting board on top. Let sit for about 15 minutes. Whether weighted or not, slice the tofu about 1/2 inch thick into 1- x 2-inch dominoes.
• Mix together 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of the brown sugar and 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium bowl. Toss with the tofu, and stir to make sure all of the pieces are coated. Let sit for five to 10 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
• In a small bowl, stir together the remaining soy sauce and sugar, hoisin sauce and sesame oil. Set aside.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet or wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates on contact. Add the oil, turn the heat to medium-high and add the peppers. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes, until the peppers begin to soften, and add the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry for 20 seconds, until the garlic and ginger begin to smell fragrant, and add the tofu, dried red pepper flakes and green onions. Stir-fry two minutes, give the sauce a stir and add to the pan. Cover and cook for three minutes. Remove the lid, stir the ingredients in the pan, and taste and adjust seasonings. Serve with rice or noodles.
