I love stir fry!! I really need to start making it once a week at least! You should not be intimidated by it. It really is not difficult at all and the results are so good. You will find that you can cook as well as your favorite Chinese or Thai restaurant!
Look at that! You can get the same results and enjoy all that stir fry has to offer right in your own kitchen! This particular stir fry recipe is outstanding if I say so myself. I believe I just did. The cut of beef I used was petite shoulder and I marinated it for about six hours but you could use sirloin or T-Bone or any other cut of beef that you know that your family loves!
So get creative, adventurous and live life on the edge! Make yourself some scrumptious stir fry!

I would love to figure out how to make this a crock pot meal..
It would really change the texture and taste. You could certainly put it all in a crock pot and see what happens. Stir Fry has crispy veggies and the slow cooker would soften everything. Let me know if you try it.
Great post! Have nice day ! 🙂 msfsp
