    From the Test Kitchen

    This stir-fry brings together tender bites of chicken, green beans, and bell peppers with a unique sauce made with soy glaze, sesame oil, and our own black bean-chile sauce—for savory flavor and a layer of subtle heat in every bite. It’s all balanced by a bed of fluffy white rice.

    Spicy Chicken Stir-Fry with Bell Peppers & Green Beans
    Title
    • 16 oz Plant-Based Ground Beyond Beef®
    • 1 cup Long Grain White Rice
    • 2 Bell Peppers
    • ¾ lb Green Beans
    • ¼ cup Rice Flour
    • 1 Tbsp Sesame Oil
    • 1 Tbsp Rice Vinegar
    • 3 Tbsps Soy Glaze
    • ⅓ cup Savory Black Bean-Chile Sauce
    • ⅓ cup Asian-Style Sautéed Aromatics
    Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce
    1 Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce

    Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard the stem ends of the peppers. Halve lengthwise; remove the ribs and seeds, then thinly slice crosswise. Cut off and discard any stem ends from the green beans; halve crosswise. In a bowl, whisk together the soy glaze, sesame oil, vinegar, and black bean-chile sauce.

    2 Cook the rice

    Carefully rinse the rice (sifting through for any impurities). Drain thoroughly. In a medium pot, combine the rice, a big pinch of salt, and 2 cups of water; heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, without stirring, 13 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork. Cover to keep warm.

    Meanwhile, in a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat the sautéed aromatics on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced peppers; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add the halved green beans; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until the vegetables are lightly browned and softened. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out the pan. 

    4 Cook the Beyond Beef

    In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the Beyond Beef™ (you'll omit the flour for Beyond Beef™). Cook, stirring frequently and breaking apart with a spoon, 5 to 7 minutes, or until browned and cooked through.

    To the pan, add the cooked vegetables and sauce (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until coated and combined. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished Beyond Beef™ and vegetables over the cooked rice. Enjoy!
