Ingredients:  
1 pound flat iron steak (cut into very thin strips against the grain)
2 carrots, julienne
1 celery stalk, julienne
½ small red bell pepper, julienne
1 tablespoon minced ginger
4 green onions, white part only, julienne
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
3 teaspoons chili sauce
6 tablespoons peanut oil for stir-frying, or as needed
¼ teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon dry sherry
½ teaspoon sugar

Directions:
Directions:
In a small dry pan, toast the Szechuan peppercorns until fully aromatic, approximately 2-3 minutes.
In a small bowl, add chili sauce and hoisin sauce. Mix and set aside.
Heat pan or wok on high heat, and add a tablespoon of peanut oil. Let the oil warm for about 30 seconds. When the oil is hot, add carrots, celery, and red bell pepper. Stir fry for 3 to 4 minutes and remove from heat. Place vegetables on a plate and reserve.
Add 4 to 5 tablespoons of peanut oil and add steak. Stir fry for about ten minutes or until the steak is dark brown and sizzles.
Splash with the sherry once the steak is done.
Remove all but 2 tablespoons of peanut oil. Add the reserved hoisin sauce mixture, ginger, salt, and green onions. Turn heat down to medium-high. Stir fry for just under a minute.
Add carrots back into the pan and Szechuan peppercorns. Simmer for about 2 minutes.
Serve with rice.
