Preparation

Step 1

In large deep nonstick skillet or wok, brown beef and garlic over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until no pink remains in beef. Remove beef to bowl and drain off excess liquid; set beef aside.

In same skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Stir-fry peppers, mushrooms, and pea pods for 3 to 4 minutes, just until tender. Add beef and remaining ingredients except eggs.

Cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until heated through. Add eggs and stir constantly for 2 to 3 minutes, or until eggs are cooked through. Serve immediately.

Notes:
You can add little extra crunch and color by adding 2 chopped scallions.
