Chinese Black Pepper Beef Recipes

BLACK PEPPER BEEF

Black Pepper Beef image

Hei Jiao Niu Liu (黑椒牛柳), or Black Pepper Beef, is a fast, easy stir-fry made with beef, onions, and peppers seasoned with oyster sauce and loads of black pepper. My take on this Chinese classic features big juicy chunks of steak, which gives the dish more substance and a bold, beefy taste.

Ingredients

6 grams whole black peppercorns ((2 teaspoons))
350 grams beef tenderloin ((or other steak cut, cut into 3/4-inch cubes))
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1 teaspoon potato starch
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
140 grams onion ((~1 small onion, cut into 1/2-inch squares))
100 grams bell pepper ((1/2 red, 1/2 green))
12 grams garlic ((~2 large cloves, chopped))

Steps:

Put the black peppercorns in a mortar and use a pestle to crack the peppercorns coarsely. If you don't have a mortar and pestle, put the peppercorns in a freezer bag, and use a rolling pin to crush them.
In a bowl, whisk the oyster sauce, Shaoxing, soy sauce, sesame oil, and most of the black pepper (saving a little to garnish). Add the potato starch and mix that in until there are no lumps left. Stir the beef in, to coat evenly and let it marinate while you prepare the vegetables.
Once all the prep is done, heat a frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add the vegetable oil, and then use tongs to add the beef in a single layer. Try to leave as much of the marinade in the bowl as possible.
Fry the beef on one side until golden brown, and then flip each piece and fry the second side until browned.
Dump the onions, bell pepper, and garlic into the pan and turn the heat to high. Stir-fry, tossing the contents of the pan periodically to ensure everything cooks evenly.
When the onions become translucent, add the remaining marinade and toss everything together until the black pepper beef is shiny and evenly coated with sauce.
Serve with rice and garnish with the remaining black pepper (to taste).

In a bowl, we'll mix black pepper, cornstarch, water, oyster sauce, light soy sauce, Shaoxing cooking wine, and red wine.
Before we mix the beef with the marinade, we'll want to squeeze as much fluid out as we can. One of the main goals of this dish is to avoid having excess fluid or sauce pooling when we're done cooking it.
For our vegetables, we'll be mincing garlic, and slicing up a variety of bell peppers and red onion for color. For each bell pepper, we'll only be using about 1/4 to 1/3 of each, so if you'd rather just stick to one color and use up a whole entire bell pepper, that's fine too.
