Asian cuisines are one of my most favorite cuisines. Who doesn’t like them? But I love preparing them at home because they come out a lot heathier without all the extra oils and sugars they are usually made with at the restaurants. I prepare them with the least amount of ingredients, fresh from the convenience of my home.
Since I mentioned convenience, it was so convenient shopping at my local Walmart for all the ingredients I needed for this Asian Pepper Steak Stir Fry recipe. I am usually always in a hurry or have my kids with me, so it’s hard for me to make a few stops just to get my ingredients from here and there. What makes this recipe even yummier is the juicy, super tender, I get from the meat section at Walmart. They are always perfectly marbled, increasing the tenderness, moisture, and flavor. As the marbling fat begins to melt, it produces a rich buttery texture and enhances the bold, beefy flavor of the meat. I like getting the thicker cut of the Premium Choice Angus NY Strip Steak for this recipe so the strips come out ticker in size. The angus meats are usually in black trays and have a golden sticker on them. So make sure you grab the right one. This is a super easy and delicious week night meal because it takes very little time to make.
To start, I was able to grab all the ingredients I needed from my local Walmart at the most affordable cost. I used their store brand products for the majority of my ingredients, such as the Great Value Organic Spices, locally grown fresh produce like the peppers, mushrooms and fresh orange (for the orange juice), Great Value Organic Honey, Great Value Extra Virgin Olive Oil, Great Value Lite Sodium Soy Sauce and a couple others, but not sugar. This recipe made more on the healthier side. I completely omitted the sugar and used just a little drizzle of honey to keep the sweet taste to it.
I start by marinating the meat because I like to let them sit in the fridge for about an hour. This way the meat absorbs all the flavor from the marinade.
Next comes the veggies. This meal is packed with healthy vegetables. I love grabbing vegetables of all colors. Just like the rainbow. So if I use sugar snap peas for example, I don’t go for green peppers. I will go for peppers with other colors like red or yellow. And if I use carrots for example, I don’t go with orange peppers. I keep one color of each vegetable, so they can all stand out. It makes the dish super colorful and packed with different kinds of vegetables.
After everything gets put together in such a little amount of time, you end up with a beautiful, colorful and delicious meal you will sure love. Sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds and voila! Takes very few ingredients, mostly healthy, takes little time to shop for and saves you a lot of money by grabbing your Angus Premium Choice NY Strip Steak and locally grown fresh produce from your local Walmart at affordable prices.
You can serve this dish with a side of rice or even prepare some cooked Lo Mein Noodles to stir in with the dish for the win! An easy family dinner served at a much lower cost right at the convenience of your home!
