- 1 large Onion
- 4 small Garlic cloves
- 1 inch Ginger root
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil

Instructions
Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips against the grain and set aside.
De-seed and slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers into thin strips.
Thinly slice the onion. Mince the garlic and ginger.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Add the beef strips to the skillet, season with salt and black pepper, and cook until browned on both sides, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Add minced garlic and ginger and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth, rice vinegar, honey, and cornstarch slurry (made by mixing the cornstarch with water).
Return the beef to the skillet and pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens.
Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
Serve hot alongside steamed rice or noodles.
