Vietnamese Beef and Potatoes



Yes,  this is a  simple stir fry made with beef, onion, and....potato chips!   Kettle chips, specifically.  Not just a super-quick, tasty dish, but a great conversation piece. I'll bet you'll make it again! 

In a small bowl, combine 2/3 c.  beef broth, 3 TB oyster sauce, 1 TB garlic-ginger stir-fry sauce, and 2 tsp. cornstarch.  Blend well and set aside.

Heat 1 TB peanut oil in a large skillet or a wok over medium-high until hot.  Add 1 small onion cut in thin wedges; cook and stir 2 minutes.  Add 1 lb. boneless beef sirloin, cut lengthwise into 2" wide strips thinly sliced.  Cook and stir 3-4 minutes until browned.

Stir broth mixture until smooth and add to skillet. Cook and stir 1 minutes or until thick and bubbly.  Add 4 oz.  kettle chips ( 4 cups) and toss gently to coat with sauce.  

Makes  four  1 1/2 c.  servings.
