Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Beef sirloin steak
- 1 large Red bell pepper
- 1 large Green bell pepper
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 2 Garlic cloves
- 0.33 cup Soy sauce
- 0.5 cup Beef broth
- 2 tbsp Brown sugar
- 2 tsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 4 cups Cooked white rice
Instructions
Thinly slice the beef sirloin steak into strips, about 1/4-inch thick. Set aside.
Slice the red and green bell peppers into thin strips, and thinly slice the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, beef broth, and brown sugar until the sugar is fully dissolved.
In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water until smooth. This will be your thickening slurry.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the beef strips to the hot skillet. Sprinkle with ground black pepper and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the sliced bell peppers, onion, and minced garlic. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour in the soy sauce mixture and stir to combine.
Pour the cornstarch slurry into the skillet, stirring constantly to thicken the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce is glossy and coats the beef and vegetables evenly.
Remove from heat and serve hot over cooked white rice.
