Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin steak
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper
- 3 tablespoons gluten-free soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3 large garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 stalks scallions
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Begin by slicing the beef sirloin steak into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Place the beef slices in a bowl and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix 1 tablespoon of gluten-free soy sauce with the cornstarch until smooth. Pour this mixture over the sliced beef, ensuring all pieces are evenly coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the beef is marinating, prepare the vegetables. Slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers into thin strips, discarding the seeds and inner ribs. Set the sliced peppers aside.
Mince the garlic cloves and grate the fresh ginger. Combine them in a small bowl.
In a separate small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of gluten-free soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, black pepper, and salt. This will be the stir-fry sauce.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef strips in a single layer and cook until browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced bell peppers and stir-fry for about 3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet with the bell peppers. Stir constantly for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet, then pour in the prepared stir-fry sauce. Toss everything together to coat well and heat through for another 1-2 minutes.
Slice the scallions thinly and sprinkle over the stir-fry before serving.
Serve the gluten-free beef stir-fry hot, over steamed rice or gluten-free noodles if desired.
