Szechuan Noodles With Spicy Beef Sauce Recipes

SPICY SICHUAN BEEF STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Toss the steak with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 teaspoon cornstarch in a large bowl. Combine the cucumber and celery in a separate bowl; set aside.
• Stir the black bean sauce with the remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 teaspoon cornstarch, the cherry pepper brine and 1/4 cup water in a small bowl; set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the cucumber-celery mixture and cook, undisturbed, 1 minute. Toss and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in the same skillet. Add the steak in a single layer. Cook until browned on the bottom, about 1 minute. Toss and continue cooking, stirring, until just a few pink spots remain, 1 more minute. Add the garlic, ginger and peppercorns and cook, stirring, until the meat is cooked through, 1 to 2 more minutes. Add the black bean sauce mixture and cherry peppers and bring to a boil. Cook until glossy, about 1 minute. Toss in the cucumbers and celery.
• Serve the stir-fry over rice. Top with celery leaves.

Steps:

• • Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Wash and dry produce. • Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.
• • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add beef*; cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. TIP: If there's excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out. • Stir in scallion whites and cabbage; cook until tender, 2-3 minutes.
• • Stir in Szechuan paste, sweet soy glaze, stock concentrate, and 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4 servings). Cook, stirring, until beef mixture is thoroughly coated in sauce. • Reduce heat to low.
• • Once water is boiling, add ²⁄3 of the noodles (save the rest for another use) to pot. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 1-2 minutes. Drain and thoroughly rinse under cold water for at least 30 seconds. (This stops the cooking and helps prevent sticky noodles.) • Add drained noodles and 1 TBSP butter (2 TBSP for 4 servings) to pan with beef mixture; toss until noodles are warmed through and everything is combined, 1-2 minutes. TIP: If needed, add water a splash at a time until noodles are thoroughly coated in sauce. • Divide between bowls and top with scallion greens and a pinch of sesame seeds. Serve.
