Green Beans And Beef Recipes

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon of the cornstarch until foamy; season with salt and pepper. Add the beef and chives, toss to coat in the marinade and stick it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Pour the peanut oil in a large skillet or wok and place over high heat. When the oil is smoking hot, add 1/2 of the beef. (If you fry all the meat at once the oil temperature will drop and the beef will stew instead of crisp.) Fry for 2 minutes then remove to a paper towel to drain; repeat with the remaining beef. Very carefully drain all but 2 tablespoons of the hot oil into a safe container.
• Stir-fry the ginger, garlic, green onions, and chile in the remaining oil until they perfume. Add the green beans; season with salt and pepper. Stir-fry the beans for 2 minutes until crisp-tender; remove from the pan. Mix the chicken broth with the remaining tablespoon of cornstarch to make a slurry and add it to the pan. Add the soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, peanut butter, and orange peel. Simmer until the sauce is thick, about 5 minutes. Return the beef and green beans to the pan, tossing to coat in the sauce. Garnish with chopped peanuts and serve with rice.

Steps:

• Drain the green beans, reserving 1/2 of the liquid. Dissolve the bouillon cube in the reserved liquid.
• Place green beans and liquid in a saucepan. Add Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, butter or margarine and garlic pepper seasoning to taste. Simmer gently for 15 minutes.
• Remove to serving bowl leaving beans sitting in their liquid. Use a slotted spoon to serve.

Steps:

• In a bowl whisk together marinade ingredients (soy sauce - pepper).
• Slice steak with the grain into 2-inch strips and then across the grain into 1/2 inch pieces (the directions say 1/8 inch pieces but mine were closer to 1/2 inch to 1 inch) and then add them to marinade, toss, and set aside.
• Heat one tablespoon oil in wok over medium high heat until hot. Add beans and stir for 1 minute. Add water and reduce heat to medium. Cover and cook for 5-10 minutes. Transfer beans to bowl.
• Add remaining oil (see note in description) to wok and increase heat to high. Add ginger and stir until oil is hot and ginger sizzles (1 minute).
• Add onion and stir for one minute.
• Add beef mixture to wok and stir until beef is done (2-5 minutes).
• Return beans and liquid to wok and stir until mixed and heated through. Discard ginger.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add green beans and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
• Melt margarine in a large saucepan over high heat. Mixing well, add green beans, onions and garlic. Stir in soy sauce. While stirring, add bouillon and water. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 20 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Steps:

• Combine soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, and chili sauce in a small bowl; set aside.
• In a large skillet, heat olive oil over high heat; swirl to coat pan. Season steaks with salt and pepper; cook until browned, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
• Pour off fat from pan; add green beans and 1/3 cup water. Reduce heat to medium. Cover; cook until beans are crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes (add more water if pan becomes dry).
• Thinly slice beef. Pour soy mixture into pan; toss. Return beef and any accumulated juices to pan; cook (uncovered) until heated through. Add bean sprouts; toss to combine.

Steps:

• seed, core and cut red pepper into thin strips, set aside.
• in a wok stir fry beef over high heat until no longer pink, about 3 minutes. using a slotted spoon, transfer beef to plate.
• drain fat from wok, add oil, stir fry garlic, ginger, salt and pepper over medium heat until fragrant, about 1 minute.
• add green beans, red pepper and 2 tablespoons water, cover and steam until beans and pepper are tender-crisp, about 3 minutes.
• return beef and any juices to wok. whisk together beef stock, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, and cornstarch. stir into wok.
• bring to a boil, boil stirring until sauce is thickened and glossy, about 1 minute.
• sprinkle with green onions and serve.

Steps:

• So additions I've tried include one 8 oz can sliced water chestnuts (chopped) and ½ onion chopped and ¼ cup red wine. truly none of these make the original recipe any better but I like to feel I contributed in some way --
• Saute ground beef (if adding water chestnuts and onions also sauté these at the same time) and add green beans when beef is mostly done. Then add the white pepper, soy sauce, (I do a tad less than ½ cup but the recipe won't let me put .38 cups) and balsamic vinegar (and if you're feeling sassy add that red wine too). Cook for 5-10 minutes and then yes my friend you are done (hopefully you've had the foresite to cook rice too) and have a MAGNIFICENT dish to serve your family and or friends -- One that someone, someday may marry you for. Just sayin' it worked on me!
• Truly the original with no additions is absolutely fabulous but for crunch (you texture lovers out there) add the water chestnuts. Otherwise it's perfect in original form but feel free to throw your creative twist on this and let me know what works!
