Hi Everyone! Happy Friday to you!!

I've always loved stir-fries and am always searching for different ones to try. This one sounds really delicious and I hope to try it soon. Enjoy!

Beef Veggie Stir-fry

2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
1 tbsp. soya sauce
1/2 tsp. sugar
1-1/2 tsp. grated, peeled ginger root
1 lb. boneless round steak, fat trimmed and cut across grain into 1-1/2" strips
2 tbsp. olive oil
2 medium onions, each cut into 8 wedges
1/2 lb. fresh mushrooms, rinsed, trimmed, and sliced
2 stalks celery, cut into 1/4-inch slices
2 small green peppers, cut into thin lengthwise strips
1 cup water chestnuts, drained and sliced
2 tbsp. cornstarch
1/4 cup water

Prepare marinade by mixing vinegar, soya sauce, sugar, and ginger. Marinate meat in mixture while preparing vegetables.

Heat 1 tbsp. oil in large skillet or wok. Stir-fry onions and mushrooms for 3 minutes over medium-high heat. Add celery and cook 1 more minute. Add remaining vegetables and cook 2 minutes or until green pepper is tender crisp. Transfer vegetables to warm bowl.

Add remaining oil to skillet. Stir-fry meat in oil about 2 minutes or until meat loses its pink color. Blend cornstarch and water. Stir into meat. Cook and stir until thickened. Return vegetables to skillet; stir gently and serve.
