1/2
pound beef boneless sirloin steak
3/4
cup Progresso® reduced-sodium chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)
1
tablespoon finely chopped garlic (6 cloves)
1
tablespoon finely chopped gingerroot
1
tablespoon dark soy sauce
2
teaspoons packed brown sugar
1/2
teaspoon five-spice powder
1
tablespoon cornstarch
1
tablespoon cold water
1
bag (1 pound) frozen stir-fry bell peppers and onions, thawed and drained
2
cups cooked brown rice
  • 1 Remove fat from beef. Cut beef with grain into 2-inch strips; cut strips across grain into 1/8-inch slices.
  • 2 Mix broth, garlic, gingerroot, soy sauce, brown sugar and five-spice powder in medium glass or plastic bowl. Mix cornstarch and cold water; stir into broth mixture. Stir in beef until evenly coated. Let stand 10 minutes. Drain beef; reserve marinade.
  • 3 Spray nonstick wok or 12-inch skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Add beef; stir-fry 2 minutes. Stir in bell peppers and onions and reserved marinade; reduce heat to medium.
  • 4 Cover and cook 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until sauce is thickened. Serve over rice.

Expert Tips

The Betty Crocker Kitchens recommends marinating only in glass or plastic. Metal bowls may react with acidic foods, which can cause an off-flavor and minerals to transfer from the bowl to the food.

If you use a lot of garlic, consider purchasing finely chopped garlic in jars. This is usually found in the produce section and needs refrigeration.

Love this dish and my family loves it also. I couldn't find 5-spice powder anywhere in my stores. After looking online I found that you can subsitute All-spice or a combination of coriander, cilantro, tarragon and basil.

Oooops. In my review I should have stated, I used fresh onions and Peppers. It also needed salt and pepper to bring out the flavors a little more. Its was very very tasty.
