Ingredients
- 1 lb flank steak
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 1.5 tbsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced into thin strips
- 1 white onion, sliced into thin strips
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, minced
- 0.5 cup beef broth
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp sugar
- 2 green onions, chopped for garnish
- 4 cups white rice, cooked (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Slice the flank steak against the grain into thin strips and place in a bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce and cornstarch until smooth. Pour the mixture over the steak, ensuring the pieces are evenly coated. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the marinated steak strips in a single layer. Cook for 1-2 minutes on each side until browned, then remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Stir-fry the red, green, and yellow bell peppers along with the sliced onion for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the skillet. Stir-fry for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Return the cooked steak to the skillet with the vegetables.
In a small bowl, mix the beef broth, oyster sauce, sesame oil, black pepper, and sugar. Pour the sauce mixture into the skillet.
Toss everything together to ensure it's evenly coated in the sauce. Cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the meat and vegetables.
Remove the skillet from the heat and garnish with chopped green onions.
Serve immediately with cooked white rice, if desired.
