Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium Green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium Yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 1 medium Onion, sliced
- 0.25 cup Coconut aminos
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 2 tablespoons Avocado oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds (optional)
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced (for garnish)
Instructions
Begin by preparing all the vegetables: slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers into thin strips and slice the onion into thin wedges.
Thinly slice the beef sirloin against the grain to ensure tender pieces once cooked.
In a large skillet or a wok, heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced beef to the hot skillet and season with salt and black pepper. Stir fry the beef, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of avocado oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, sautéing for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet, and stir fry for about 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet, adding the coconut aminos. Stir everything to combine and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve the beef stir fry hot, garnished with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, if desired.
