Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin steak
- 1 medium red bell pepper
- 1 medium green bell pepper
- 1 medium yellow bell pepper
- 1 large onion
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon ginger
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Start by slicing the beef sirloin steak into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, against the grain.
Cut the red, green, and yellow bell peppers into thin strips, discarding the seeds and stems.
Peel and slice the onion into thin wedges.
Mince the garlic cloves and finely grate the ginger.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper to create the stir fry sauce.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced beef and cook, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through, approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the pan, stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced onions, cooking for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the bell peppers to the pan and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked beef to the pan along with the stir fry sauce.
Drizzle with sesame oil and stir well to combine and heat through all ingredients.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more soy sauce, salt, or pepper as desired.
Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low-carb beef stir fry!
