SPICY GARLIC BEEF STIR FRY

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, dissolve beef bouillon cube in boiling water. Set aside to cool.
• Place beef and steak seasoning in a plastic resealable bag. Seal bag, releasing as much air as possible, and toss/squeeze with hands until well coated. Marinate for 30 minutes at room temperature.
• Once beef bouillon mixture has cooled, whisk in soy sauce, garlic powder, ginger, cayenne pepper and cornstarch. Set aside.
• In a wok, heat 1 tbs. oil until glistening. Brown beef strips on both sides, leaving a slight tinge of pink in the middle. Remove to another dish, cover and set aside.
• Add remaining 1 tbs. oil to wok. Add vegetables and black pepper and cook until crisp-tender. Once vegetables are cooked, return beef to wok and toss to combine.
• Make a well in the center of the wok and add sauce mixture, stirring constantly until slightly thickened. Then toss all together.
• Serve immediately over rice.
