Ingredients:
- 1 lb sirloin steak, thinly sliced against the grain
- 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 large green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp soy sauce (low sodium preferred)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp water
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Steak Marinade
In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper. Add the sliced steak and toss to coat evenly. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes (longer is better, up to 2 hours in the refrigerator).
Step 2: Prep Your Blackstone
Preheat your Blackstone griddle to medium-high heat. Once hot, add the olive oil.
Step 3: Stir-Fry the Vegetables
Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the hot griddle. Stir-fry for about 5-7 minutes, until they start to soften and slightly char.
Step 4: Cook the Steak
Add the marinated steak to the griddle. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Don't overcrowd the griddle; work in batches if necessary for even cooking.
Step 5: Make the Sauce
In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water until smooth. Pour this mixture into the griddle with the steak and vegetables. Stir constantly until the sauce thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 6: Serve and Enjoy!
Serve your Cowboy Stir-Fry immediately. This delicious dish is fantastic on its own or served over rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes.
Tips and Variations:
- For extra flavor: Marinate the steak for longer! Overnight is ideal.
- Spice it up: Add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the marinade for a spicy kick.
- Add more veggies: Feel free to add other vegetables like mushrooms, broccoli, or zucchini.
- Protein swap: Substitute chicken or shrimp for the steak.
- Make it a complete meal: Serve over rice or quinoa for a more filling dish.
