Ingredients

• 500 grams Beef sirloin, thinly sliced
• 2 teaspoons Black pepper, freshly ground
• 3 tablespoons Low sodium soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 medium Onion, thinly sliced
• 1 medium Red bell pepper, julienned
• 1 medium Green bell pepper, julienned
• 1 cup Water
• 1 teaspoon Sugar
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef, 1 tablespoon of low sodium soy sauce, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Mix well to coat the beef evenly and set aside for 15 minutes to marinate.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Add the marinated beef to the skillet in a single layer, cooking in batches if necessary. Sear the beef for about 2 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and sliced onion, stir-frying for about 2 minutes until fragrant and the onion begins to soften.

Step 5

Add the julienned red and green bell peppers to the skillet. Stir-fry for another 3 minutes until the peppers are crisp-tender.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the remaining 2 tablespoons of low sodium soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, freshly ground black pepper, sugar, rice vinegar, and water. Stir until cornstarch is dissolved.

Step 7

Return the cooked beef to the skillet, then pour the sauce mixture over the beef and vegetables.

Step 8

Stir everything together, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the beef and vegetables evenly. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce is glossy and thickened.

Step 9

Remove from heat and serve hot over steamed rice or with your choice of side.
