Hey y’all! I am super excited to be a new contributor on Today’s Creative Life! This is one of those things that is kind of unbelievable, because 3 years ago when I started blogging, TCL was one of my favorite blogs.

Chinese Beef Green Beans Stir Fry Recipe

I visited Kim’s blog frequently and always looked forward to her posts. Flash forward 3 years a later, I am still blogging on Domestic Superhero (my blog!)and here I am, posting on one of my all-time favorite blogs – totally surreal! I have lots of good things to share, so let’s get to it! Today I am sharing a delicious recipe for Chinese Beef and Green Beans stir fry. If you like beef, then you’ll want to try these Steak Stuffed Bell Peppers too.

Chinese Beef Green Beans is the perfect quick dinner. It’s not only delicious, but it’s pretty healthy. I like making ‘take-out’ at home, because you know exactly what is going into the food, and you can control everything. It also saves money, too, which is never a bad thing.

Can you Add More Veggies to this Teriyaki Steak Stir Fry Recipe?

Yes!! Add all your favorites! If you aren’t a big fan of green beans, you can use a different vegetable, which makes this versatile as well. I love making this recipe with broccoli, peppers, or sugar snap peas! Even eggplant is delicious in this sauce!

First, you are going to make the sauce – whisk together the broth, oyster sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, and red pepper flakes and set that aside. Next, you are going to cook your green beans in the skillet, followed by your beef, and lastly the sauce. Last, you mix everything together and serve – easy peasy (see below for full recipe).

What kind of Steak do you use for Teriyaki Steak Stir Fry?

I use flank steak in this recipe and cut it myself. I do have one tip for you; throw your beef into the freezer for 10 minutes, then with a sharp non-serrated knife, slice the meat thin against the grain. If you’re in a hurry, just pick up the pre-cut cubes of beef in the meat section of your grocery store.
