Rainbow Beef with Shiitake Mushrooms

This is a recipe that I originally got from my sister (thanks sis). Its one of those spectacular, showy, look what I made kind of dishes. If you are looking for something to impress your friends this is the recipe for you. Basically you make lettuce wraps with the rainbow beef, topping it with the rice noodles. Even the most manly man will love this, just ask the Shiitake guy. Here's the recipe, hope you guys like it as well as we do.

Ingredients:
4 pounds of ground chuck or grass fed beef
1 finely diced green pepper
1 finely diced red pepper
1 finely diced yellow pepper (I didn't have one)
1/2 a pound of Grandview Farm Shiitake Mushrooms
6 finely diced celery
6 finely diced carrots
1 package of rice noodles
2 Tbs oyster sauce
2 Tbs hoisin sauce
Peanut oil
Bibb lettuce or Romaine

Marinade for the Beef:
4 Teaspoons Sherry
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
4 Tablespoons of soy sauce
2 Tablespoons of water

Stir fry veggies

Rainbow beef in lettuce leaves

Method:
Marinate the beef for 5-10 minutes. While beef is marinating deep fry your rice sticks in the hot peanut oil. The rice sticks will expand rapidly. When they are done move them to a plate to drain. After you have made your rice sticks add your shiitake mushrooms to the hot oil. Let them cook until golden brown, then add all your peppers, carrots, and celery. Stir fry till tender. When veggies are done transfer to a plate. If you need to add more oil you can do so at this time. Add your beef and stir fry till meat is done. Add your veggies and oyster sauce to the beef and mix thoroughly. Arrange your rice sticks on a serving platter. Pour your beef and veggie mixture over the bed of crispy rice sticks. Then just fill a lettuce leaf with beef mixture and rice sticks. You can add the hoisin sauce for taste. This is totally optional. Makes about 12 servings. Enjoy!
