Szechuan Shredded Beef Recipes

Steps:

• Toss beef with soy sauce, cornstarch, crushed red pepper and garlic in non-metal bowl. Cover and refrigerate 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Cut partially frozen beef into thin slices, then julienne into a fine shred (cutting beef while part frozen keeps meat thinner); set aside.
• Mix bean paste, soy sauce, rice wine, sugar, and ginger; pour over beef in shallow dish or plastic bag, coating meat well.
• Marinate meat 2 hours.
• Cut celery, carrot, and green pepper into thin shreds; cut onion into thin slivers, and set aside.
• Heat 1 tbsp oil in wok and add dried chilies and minced garlic; cook until aromatic, then add vegetables.

Steps:

• Trim away fat from steak. Slice across the grain into 1/4-inch thick slices. Slice steak again across the grain for matchstick pieces of steak. Set aside.

Stir-fry for another 30 seconds. Add stir-fry sauce, sherry, and chili-garlic sauce. Stir-fry for another 30 to 60 seconds. Garnish with green scallions and serve hot.
