Chinese Stir Fry Pepper Beef

Another one of my favorites for a fast and healthy dinner.

You'll Need:
1 clove garlic, sliced
1/2 lb of beef tenderloin or sirloin, thinly sliced into 1 inch strips (I bought the really thin steaks from the Mexican grocer next to my house). Should be less than 1/4 inch thickness.
1 small onion, sliced
1 zucchini (optional), sliced
1 tbsp red wine or some sort of dark cooking wine
1 Bell Pepper (red, green or yellow), sliced into 1 inch strips
3 tbsp Chinese black pepper sauce (in Asian grocery isle)
1 tbsp corn starch mixed with 1 tbsp water.

Heat up the wok or pan. Drizzle in some oil. Toss in garlic and fry until aromatic. Remove garlic. Toss in steaks and stir fry until lightly browned (keep the beef moving in the pan a all times). Make sure it's not cooked all the way. Remove and reserve with garlic. Add the wine and then toss in the onions and zucchini first. Stir fry till golden. Add bell pepper and keep stir frying till everything becomes tender. Add the beef back in. Add pepper sauce and stir fry till everything's cooked through. Add the corn starch liquid and stir till sauce thickens.

Serve over hot rice! Enjoy. :)
