INGREDIENTS

1/3 cup uncooked short-grain dry brown rice
¾ cup of water
1 cup very thinly sliced carrots
1 cup snow peas
4 tablespoons teriyaki sauce (see recipe here) or your favorite bottled teriyaki sauce
1 teaspoon of corn starch
3 teaspoons divided vegetable oil
6 ounces of sirloin tip steak thinly sliced against the grain into strips (or 6 ounces of chicken breast, sliced the same way)
2 green onions, diced (separate white and green)
Small pinch of red pepper flakes
3 medium mushrooms, sliced
4 ounces of mixed sweet peppers (red, yellow and / or orange) cut into strips

INSTRUCTIONS

In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring the water and rice to a boil. Cover with an airtight lid, lower to a boil and cook for about 45 to 50 minutes or until all the water is absorbed. Unroll and let stand 10 minutes.
While the rice cooks, prepare all the other ingredients.
Place a pan of water with a steaming basket over high heat and steam the carrots and snow peas covered for one minute each. Put aside.
Add the cornstarch to the teriyaki sauce and set aside.
When the rice is almost cooked, start cooking the meat and vegetables. In a thick-bottomed wok or skillet over very high heat, place a teaspoon of oil and let it get hot. Add half the beef and brown on both sides (about a minute) and remove to a bowl. Bring the pan back to hot smoking and add the next teaspoon of oil and brown the second half of the meat, removing it in the same bowl. Let the pan warm up again, add a third teaspoon of oil and place a white part of the chopped shallot. Stir once and add the red pepper flakes, mushrooms and peppers. Mix and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until everything is lightly cooked but still a little crunchy. Add the steamed carrots, snow peas and cooked beef (or chicken). Stir, keeping the heat high. Stir the teriyaki again and add to the pan. Remove from heat and mix several times.
To serve, place ½ cup brown rice on each place and garnish each dish with half of the beef mixture. Top with chopped green onion and serve.
