Are you ever disappointed when you order Hunan Beef at a restaurant? Don't set yourself up for disappointment! Make it yourself! It is so easy and delicious! It looks like a lot of steps, but its fast and easy! Use a food processor for even faster chopping. Its really just chop, whisk, cook and mix! Don't settle for instant rice, either. Its just not the same! Part of the flavor experience comes from the Jasmine or Basmati rice! Use an Instant Pot for Easy Instant Pot Rice!! Goes Great with Pork Eggrolls & Crab Rangoons #HunanBeef #BestHunanBeefEver #FreshHunanBeef #SoNomNom4U

3 cloves of garlic, minced

3 TBSP Siracha Oil
1 cup Broccoli Florets

1/2 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1/2 yellow bell pepper, seeded and chopped
6 green onions, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
3 cloves of garlic, minced

1 cup beef broth
4 TBSP soy Sauce
2 TBSP oyster sauce

Directions:
Prepare rice. Set aside.
Slice beef thin, place in zipper bag and pound it with a mallet until tender. Set Aside.
In a medium bowl prepare the marinade: combine 3 TBSP Teriyaki Sauce, 2 TBSP sugar, 2 TBSP salt, 2 TBSP Siracha Oil, 3 cloves of minced garlic. Add meat, stir to coat. cover and place in refrigerator. The longer it marinates, the better but you can just marinate it for 10 minutes if needed!

Add the mixed sauce. Whisk continually until it is hot and thickened. Pour back into the bowl/measuring cup and set aside. Rinse wok.
Add 3 TBSP siracha oil and heat until it is smoking. Add meat slices and dried chili peppers and cook about 5 minutes. Pour meat out onto place or bowl and set aside.
Add 3 TBSP siracha oil and add broccoli florets and chopped onion. Add 1/2 cup beef broth. Cook about 3 minutes. Make sure broccoli is still crunchy. Add chopped red bell pepper, chopped yellow bell pepper, chopped green onions, chopped onion, and minced garlic. Cook about 2 minutes. Remove from wok and add to bowl. Set aside.
