Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g beef sirloin steak
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp canola oil
- 1 red bell pepper
- 1 green bell pepper
- 1 yellow bell pepper
- 1 white onion
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
- 1 tsp red chili flakes
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 2 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 scallions, sliced
- 1 tsp sesame seeds (optional)
- white rice (for serving)
Instructions
Thinly slice the beef sirloin steak into bite-sized strips. Place the strips in a mixing bowl and add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 2 teaspoons of cornstarch. Toss to coat and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
While the beef marinates, thinly slice the bell peppers (red, green, and yellow) and white onion into strips. Mince the garlic and ginger if not already prepared.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, beef broth, and sesame oil. Set the sauce mixture aside.
In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef in a single layer and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes, or until just browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of canola oil to the skillet. Toss in the sliced bell peppers, onions, minced garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.
Sprinkle the red chili flakes over the vegetables and stir to combine for about 30 seconds.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Pour the prepared sauce mixture over the beef and vegetables. Stir everything together, cooking for another 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly and everything is well combined.
Remove from heat and garnish with sliced scallions and sesame seeds, if desired.
Serve the Spicy Pepper Steak hot over a bed of steamed white rice. Enjoy immediately!
