Stir Fry Beef with Scallions and Snow Peas

Yum
This Stir Fry Beef with Scallions and Snow Peas is a quick and easy Chinese dish that will have you putting away those take out menus for good.  

Sometimes making a stir fry can be very time consuming when you have to chop, slice and dice all those vegetables.   In this very simple stir fry, I used frozen snow peas, two jalapenos for heat and a lot of scallions.  I simply adore scallions.  They give such a wonderful and fresh onion flavor and really make any dish pop.  We usually relegate scallions as a finishing ingredient or a fresh garnish for Asian meals.  I think scallions are so delicious they should be front and center in the a dish like this stir fry. 

The sauce is also very simple with just soy sauce and Hoison sauce.  Now I do use Chinese cooking wine called Shaohsing wine, but you can always substitute cooking sherry or dry sherry if you cannot find it in your grocery store.  

I love everything a bit spicy so I added jalapenos and red chili flakes, but you are the boss in your kitchen so add what you like.  This stir fry is simple in ingredients, but full of bold flavor.  So buy a bunch of scallions and make it the star of your next dish.

  2. This is a great reminder that you don't have to put 10 thousand things in a stir fry - that's usually the reason I don't make it very often. I love this simplicity of yours -- letting a few great ingredients shine is always a great thing! :)

  9. So true that stir fry often takes so much time chopping. This recipe is great! Especially since scallions are always in abundance. Will give it a try :-)

  10. I'm a big fan of green onions so I'm thrilled that you use a good amount of them in this. It looks delicious.

  11. I saw green onions and instantly made this dish! subbed out a few ingredients because it was all i had on hand but still turned out tasty; mushrooms for beef, and homemade hoisin and extra salt becuase I don't use soy sauce. In hindesight, I should have used one jalapeno instead of two (cooking for one, so I halved the recipe) because it was super spicy!

  12. Wrap up warm, don't go out without layers of warm garments on, and waterproof dress if rain or snow is gauge. While you are riding your Mobility Scooter your body is dormant and not producing much warmth so it is critical that you wear the correct dress. Get out your trusty thermals as a first layer, and bear in mind caps, and gloves (ones with grasp to enable you to control your Scooter.)Top 10 best snow scooters
