Instructions
Prepare the noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
Slice the beef thinly against the grain. In a bowl, marinate it with 1 tablespoon of the low sodium soy sauce, cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of water for about 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, and dark sesame oil. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until just cooked through. Remove and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining tablespoon of canola oil. Add garlic, ginger, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the red bell pepper slices and stir-fry for another 2 minutes.
Return the cooked beef to the wok, then add the prepared noodles, green onions, and bean sprouts.
Pour the sauce mixture over the noodles and gently toss everything together with a pair of tongs until well combined and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
Serve immediately, and enjoy your low sodium beef chow fun!
