Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 large green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 large yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 stalks green onions, chopped
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon red chili flakes (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, grated ginger, and black pepper. Add the sliced beef sirloin to the bowl and toss to coat. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or pan over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Add the marinated beef to the hot pan and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until it's browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
Step 4
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 5
Add the sliced red, green, and yellow bell peppers to the pan. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes, or until the bell peppers are slightly tender but still crisp.
Step 6
Return the cooked beef to the pan and mix it with the bell peppers. Stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes to combine the flavors.
Step 7
Sprinkle the chopped green onions, sesame seeds, and, if using, red chili flakes over the mixture. Stir to combine everything evenly.
Step 8
Serve hot, optionally over a bed of cooked rice or noodles, and enjoy your high protein beef stir-fry with bell peppers.
