Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef (sirloin, flank, or ribeye), thinly sliced
- 120 ml Soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 60 ml Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 cups Broccoli florets
- 1 cup Bell peppers (red, yellow, or green), sliced
- 1 cup Carrots, julienned
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 1 stalk Green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to make the teriyaki sauce.
Transfer half of the teriyaki sauce to a zip-top bag or shallow dish and add the sliced beef. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
While the beef marinates, prepare the vegetables by cutting the broccoli into small florets, slicing the bell peppers, and julienning the carrots.
In a cup or small bowl, combine cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Drain the beef, discarding the used marinade, and sear the beef in batches for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet and stir fry the broccoli, bell peppers, and carrots for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
Return the beef to the skillet along with the reserved teriyaki sauce. Stir to combine.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir well. Allow the sauce to simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened and glossy.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired. Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
