Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 oz lo mein noodles
- 1 lb flank steak
- 6 tbsp soy sauce
- 3 tbsp oyster sauce
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 2 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp ginger, minced
- 1 large carrot, julienned
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 1 cup water
Instructions
Cook the lo mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain and toss with 1 teaspoon of sesame oil to prevent sticking. Set aside.
Thinly slice the flank steak against the grain into bite-sized strips. In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of soy sauce and 1 teaspoon of cornstarch. Toss the steak strips in the mixture and let marinate for 10 minutes.
In another small bowl, combine the remaining 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, 1 teaspoon of sesame oil, brown sugar, and water. Stir well to create the sauce, and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated steak strips and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the julienned carrot, sliced red bell pepper, and broccoli florets to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked steak strips to the skillet. Pour the prepared sauce over the steak and vegetables, stirring to coat everything evenly.
Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss gently to combine with the sauce, steak, and vegetables. Allow everything to heat through for another 2-3 minutes.
Remove from heat, garnish with sliced green onions, and serve immediately.
