Published Apr 05, 2019 Updated Sep 05, 2024 I carefully examined the ingredients and meticulously tasted the Beijing sauce to get a feel for its unique flavor profile. After a lot of tasting and testing, I’m excited to share my perfected copycat recipe with you. My homemade copycat version of the famous Panda Express Beijing Beef recipe isn’t just a close match—it’s fresher, healthier and even more flavorful than the restaurant’s version! With crispy beef, a tangy-sweet Beijing sauce, and vibrant bell peppers and onions, this recipe brings all the amazing flavors of the original right to your kitchen. Plus, it’s ready in under 30 minutes with just five simple steps, making it both quick and faster than takeout delivery! Looking for more yummy Chinese takeout recipes?

Whenever you’re craving it, you can even swap the beef for chicken. It’s totally up to you!
