Pepper steak (Chinese: 青椒牛 or 青椒牛肉, pinyin: qīngjiāo niúròu; Japanese: チンジャオロース, chinjaorōsu; also called green pepper steak) is a stir-fried Chinese American dish consisting of sliced beef steak (often flank, sirloin, or round) cooked with sliced green and/or red bell peppers and other seasonings such as soy sauce and ginger, and usually thickened with cornstarch. Sliced onions and bean sprouts are also frequent additions to the recipe.
Evidence for the dish's existence in the United States dates from at least 1948.[1] The dish originated from Fujian cuisine, where it was known as qīngjiāo ròusī (青椒炒肉絲).[1] In the original dish the meat used was pork and the seasonings were relatively light compared to pepper steak.
Similar dishes include a dish called chin-jao rōsu (青椒肉絲) found in Japanese Chinese cuisine and Steak au poivre found in french cuisine.
Use in popular culture
The dish was mentioned in the film The Blues Brothers as being served in the Joliet State Prison on Thursdays by Jake Blues (John Belushi). It was also mentioned in the first episode of the Japanese Anime "Cowboy Bebop" with the exception that there was no meat in it, because the crew members were too poor to afford it.
