Instructions
-
In a medium bowl, mix the ground bison with the garlic, ginger, 1 tablespoon of the soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of the cornstarch, and the sugar. Season the meat lightly with salt and black pepper and let stand for about 20 minutes.
-
Meanwhile, in a nonstick skillet or well-seasoned wok, heat 1 teaspoon of the canola oil until shimmering. Add the seasoned meat, breaking it up into small bits with a spoon, and stir-fry over high heat until browned. Transfer the meat to a bowl. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons of oil to the skillet, and when it is very hot, add the green beans and stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Add the tofu cubes and stir-fry until the tofu is lightly browned in spots and the beans begin to blister, about 3 minutes longer. Return the meat to the skillet and stir gently to slightly break up the tofu.
-
In a small bowl, whisk the broth with the Chinese chile-garlic sauce and the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of cornstarch. Add the sauce to the skillet and bring to a boil. Simmer until the beans are tender and the sauce is thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sliced scallions. Transfer the stir-fry to bowls and serve immediately. Looking for more dinner options?
