Ingredients

• 1 pound eye of round steak
• 12 ounces green beans (trimmed)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 whole red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
• 1 medium onion (thinly sliced)
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoons salt
• 0.25 cup beef broth
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 0.25 teaspoons red chili flakes (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Trim any excess fat from the eye of round steak and slice it thinly against the grain into bite-sized strips.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, black pepper, and cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water. Stir until the cornstarch dissolves completely, creating a sauce, and set aside.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced steak strips and season lightly with salt. Sear the meat for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside on a plate.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add the sliced onion and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the trimmed green beans to the skillet and stir. Pour in the beef broth, cover the skillet with a lid, and allow the vegetables to steam for 3-4 minutes until the green beans are just tender but still crisp.

Step 7

Return the steak to the skillet and pour the prepared sauce over the mixture. Stir everything together and let it cook for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the meat and vegetables evenly.

Step 8

If using, sprinkle in red chili flakes for a touch of heat. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 9

Serve immediately as is or over a bed of steamed rice for a complete meal.
