Simple Sizzling Beef Salad Recipes

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons salad dressing in a large nonstick skillet over high heat.
• Add beef; stir-fry 2 minutes until just cooked through.
• Remove beef to plate.
• Heat 1/2 cup salad dressing in skillet, add carrots and cook 3 minutes or until crisp-tender.
• Toss beef and carrots with salad greens and croutons.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Put 350g thin-cut minute steak strips in a bowl and toss in 3 tbsp cornflour and 2 tsp Chinese five-spice powder.
• Heat 100ml vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan until hot, then add the beef and fry until golden and crisp.
• Scoop out the beef and drain on kitchen paper. Pour away all but 1 tbsp oil.
• Add 1 thinly sliced red pepper, ½ thinly sliced red chilli, sliced white ends of 4 spring onions, 2 crushed garlic cloves and thumb-sized piece ginger, cut into matchsticks, to the pan. Stir-fry for 3 mins to soften, but don't let the garlic and ginger burn.
• Mix the 4 tbsp rice wine vinegar or white wine vinegar, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce and 2 tbsp tomato ketchup in a jug with 2 tbsp water, then pour over the veg.
• Bubble for 2 mins, then add the beef back to the pan and toss well to coat.
• Serve the beef on noodles with prawn crackers, if you like, scattered with the remaining ½ sliced red chilli and sliced green parts of the spring onions.

Steps:

• Cut the steak into thin strips.
• Place 2 teaspoons of the oil in a shallow dish and stir in the rice wine, soy sauce, chilli sauce, garlic and five-spice power and add the steak strips tossing to coat well and then chill for 30 minutes.
• Heat the remaining oil in a large fry pan or wok.
• Using a slotted spoon or fork lift the meat from the marinade and add to the wok or frying pan, keeping the marinade to one side.
• Stir fry the steak over a high heat for 2 to 3 minutes, until browned all over.
• Transfer to a plate and set aside.
• Add the spring onions, pepper and mushrooms to the fry pan or wok, lower the heat to medium and stir fry for 4 minutes.
• Return the steak to the pan and pour in the reserved marinade and stir fry for a further 1 to 2 minutes until all the ingredients are piping hot and the sauce is bubbling.
• Serve at once over rice.

Steps:

• Pour 1/4 cup dressing over meat in shallow glass dish. Refrigerate 30 min. to marinate, turning after 15 min. Remove meat from marinade; discard marinade.
• Heat grill to medium heat. Thread meat onto 12 skewers alternately with tomatoes, mushrooms and asparagus.
• Grill 15 min. or until meat is done and vegetables are crisp-tender, turning and brushing occasionally with remaining dressing.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a wok or deep frying pan. Using scissors, snip the sausages into quarters straight into the pan. Throw in the onion, and fry for a minute or two, stirring every now and then to brown everything. Spoon in the mustard and sugar, tip in the tomatoes and cook for a few minutes more, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes are just beginning to split and the mixture is coated in the sweet mustard glaze.
• Meanwhile, separate the lettuces into leaves, peel, stone and slice the avocado and halve and slice the cucumber. Mix them together and pile onto a platter. Spoon the hot sausage mixture on top. Add the vinegar and 1 tbsp water to the pan and stir it over the heat to dislodge all those tasty flavourings from the pan. Spoon the pan juices over the salad and serve with crusty bread.

Steps:

• Heat grill to medium-high. Reserve 1/4 cup dressing. Brush remaining dressing onto mushrooms, peppers and steak.
• Grill, dressing-sides down, 5 min. on each side or until steak is medium doneness (160ºF) and vegetables are crisp-tender.
• Cut steak and grilled vegetables into strips; place on top of greens. Top with onions, cheese and reserved dressing.
