    Title: Pepper Steak
    Categories: Beef, Vegetables, Herbs, Wine, Rice
    Yield: 4 servings

    1 lb Beef flank or skirt steak
    1 tb Cornstarch
    2 1/2 ts Fresh ground black pepper;
    - more for serving
    3 1/2 tb Soy sauce; more to taste
    2 tb Neutral oil; more for
    - stir-frying
    2 md Fresh bell or Cubanelle
    - peppers; in 1" pieces
    1 md Yellow onion; in 1" pieces
    3 cl Garlic; crushed, thin
    - sliced
    1 Piece (1 1/2") ginger;
    - peeled, crushed, thin
    - sliced
    Salt
    1/4 c Shaoxing wine or dry sherry
    2 tb Honey
    Cooked white rice; for
    - serving

    Marinate the beef: Cut the steak into 2- or 3-inch-wide
    pieces along the grain, then cut into thin slices
    against the grain. In a bowl, combine the steak,
    cornstarch, black pepper, 2 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
    and 2 tablespoons oil. Toss to mix, cover and marinate
    at room temperature for up to 30 minutes, or in the
    refrigerator for up to 12 hours.

    Stir-fry the beef: Heat a large wok or skillet over
    medium-high until a splash of water dropped into the pan
    evaporates quickly. Add enough oil to generously coat
    the pan, then add the beef in a single layer. Cook
    without flipping until the meat is browned around the
    edges, 2 1/2 to 3 minutes, then stir constantly until
    browned all over, about 30 more seconds. Transfer to a
    plate.

    Add the peppers, onion, garlic and ginger to the same
    wok, still over medium-high heat. Season with salt and
    pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the
    vegetables start to soften, 1 to 11/2 minutes.

    Add the meat back to the pan, along with the Shaoxing
    wine, honey and the remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce.
    Cook, stirring constantly and scraping up any stuck-on
    bits, until the liquid reduces greatly and slicks the
    vegetables and beef, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Taste and
    adjust seasoning with salt, pepper or soy sauce as
    desired. Serve immediately with rice.
