Can anyone recommend a good cut of meat to use in stir fry with peppers? I've tried chinese pepper steak but it's been tough. Thanks!

I think every butcher cuts differently. I hear London broil is very good for pepper steak but I was trying to save $ so I bought the pre cut pepper steak (prob lesser quality meat) and I 1st seasoned and fried in egg and flour then I sautd onion added peppers and then the meats with teryaki and it came out extremely soft and delicious actually!

Let me know what you find out Smile

Oh, good! I just bought minute steaks. Just cut up smaller and sautee? Or dip in flour first as newlywed19 suggested?

Whether you use pepper steak or minute steak, you should simmer the meat for about 2 hours. Both cuts need long slow cooking if you want it tender.

Thanks!! So it's not a quick stir fry type. I didn't read that until just now, much too late LOL!!!!

The meat was tough, and again had a vein running through it that grossed out my kids...

I don't know if 2 hours is really needed -- I find that a little over an hour is adequate for pepper steak meat. It comes out nice and soft then.

London broil is better for a stir fry. But it won't be butter soft.
Or, if you're going for a salty and tasty meat and pepper dish without a sauce (a dressing would work better here), you can use skirt steak.
