Ingredients
  

For the marinade

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce use Tamari sauce for a gluten free option
  • 1 teaspoon red chili paste with garlic
  • 1 teaspoon fresh grated ginger

For the sauce

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 oz. water
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce or Tamari sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine or cooking sherry
  • 1 teaspoon sugar or coconut sugar
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

For the black pepper angus steak

  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

  • 6 small white or baby Bella mushrooms sliced
  • 8 oz Angus beef cut into 1-inch strips

  • Add the soy sauce, red chili paste, and grated ginger to a medium mixing bowl, and stir until combined. Add the beef and mix until the beef is coated.
  • In a separate small mixing bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth. Stir in the remaining soy sauce, wine or sherry, sugar, and black pepper; set aside.
  • To make the black pepper angus steak, heat the sesame oil in a wok or large frying pan.

  • Add the onion, bell pepper, and green beans, and cook until the onion starts to brown.
  • Add the mushroom slices and the marinated beef, and cook until the outside of the meat is browned but still a little pink in the center.
  • Then add the sauce and stir until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.

Notes

  • Use arrowroot starch in place of the cornstarch, for a grain free option.
  • You can use coconut sugar or a granulated sweetener, in place of the sugar.
