Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb flank steak
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger
- 2 whole garlic cloves
- 3 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 whole red bell pepper
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 medium carrot
- 2 stalks green onions
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 3 tbsp water
- 1 tbsp sesame seeds
Instructions
Slice the flank steak thinly against the grain into bite-sized strips. Place in a bowl and add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Mix well to coat. Set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
Peel and finely grate the fresh ginger. Mince the garlic cloves. Cut the red bell pepper into thin strips, chop the broccoli into bite-sized florets, peel and julienne the carrot, and slice the green onions diagonally.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, water, and the remaining 1 tablespoon of cornstarch to create the stir-fry sauce.
Heat 1 1/2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef in a single layer and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add grated ginger and minced garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the bell pepper, broccoli, and carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Pour in the stir-fry sauce and toss everything together. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and vegetables evenly.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
