If you are looking for a filling, fast and tasty meal, whip up a skillet full of beef stir fry. It comes together quickly and could even be called a healthy meal (which most of my blog posts aren’t. Sorry I grew up on a farm where butter was liberally applied and included in everything. What can I say?)
Give this a whirl and see if it doesn’t make for a fast and easy meal.
Ingredients for Beef Stir Fry - you can use whatever veggies you like, this just happened to be what I had available when I decided to make this for dinner.
I use stew meat and slice it thinly for stir-fry. Because the meat is still a little frozen, it is super easy to slice.
Wash and slice up vegetables. We used celery, zuchinni and yellow squash. You could also use broccoli, cauliflower, peppers, onion, corn, etc.
Brown your meat in a hot skillet. I got out my Big Bertha cast iron skillet so it could hold all the ingredients easily.
Add veggies once the meat is browned.
Add beef broth and simmer until veggies are tender. Thanks Captain Cavedweller for pouring in the broth so I could take photos!
Steaming hot and ready to eat. Serve over rice and you've got a complete meal, ready in minutes!
Beef Stir Fry
1-2 pounds of stew meat, thinly sliced
4 stalks of celery, thinly sliced
1 zucchini, thinly sliced
1 yellow squash, thinly sliced
1 can water sliced chestnust
parsley flakes
onion flakes
beef broth
salt
all-purpose seasoning
Brown meat in a skillet on medium-high heat. When browned, add in veggies and enough beef broth to cover the mixture. Cover and reduce heat to medium. Simmer until veggies are tender. Serve over rice. We like to sprinkle chow mein noodles on top. You can use any combination of vegetables. Onions and peppers and I are not on speaking terms, so we make do with onion flakes.
Enjoy!
