Steps to make Kung Pao Beef:
  1. Slice beef into pieces. Mine were about 1/2 inch by 2 inches. But make them whatever size you like. I was using a sirloin steak this time. I cut it in half lengthwise, and sliced each half.
  2. Sprinkle the beef with salt and pepper in a small bowl, mix well
  3. Add cornstarch, mix until all is coated, set aside
  4. In a small container, I used a coffee mug, mix together the sauce ingredients. Set aside
  5. Using a stir-fry, wok, or skillet, add 1 tablespoon oil, heat on medium high
  6. Add about 1/3 of your fresh chillies, sliced or diced, to oil, stir for about 30 seconds
  7. Add veggies to pan, stir-fry until done, about 3-4 minutes, remove and set aside
  8. Add remaining 2 tablespoon oil to your pan, allow to heat up, about 30 seconds
  9. Roughly crush the pepper corns, add to the pan, stir for about 1 minute
  10. Remaining fresh chillies, add them to the pan, stir for 1 minute
  11. Add beef to pan, stir-fry until brown (not done, just browned), 2 - 3 minutes
  12. Add peanuts to meat, keep stirring, 1 minute
  13. Add veggies back in, keep stirring, 2 minutes to warm through.
  14. Give sauce one final stir, add to pan, keep stirring
  15. When the sauce has reduced and thickened, reduce heat to medium low, stir 1 minute to allow heat to reduce in pan.
  16. Add cilantro and green onions, stir for 1 more minute
  17. Serve. We usually serve ours over rice, but I could see this over noodles also.
