Ingredients

• 1 lb beef sirloin or flank steak
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 1 medium green bell pepper
• 1 medium yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium onion
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 0.25 cup water
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 tbsp ginger
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1 stalk green onion (for garnish)
• 4 cups cooked white rice

Directions

Step 1

Thinly slice the beef across the grain into bite-sized strips. Set aside.

Step 2

Deseed the bell peppers and thinly slice them into strips. Slice the onion into similar-sized strips. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, water, and black pepper to create the sauce. Stir until smooth and set aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips and cook for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Toss in the garlic and ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until aromatic.

Step 6

Add the sliced bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften but remain crisp.

Step 7

Return the beef to the skillet and pour the prepared sauce over the mixture. Stir everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the beef and vegetables.

Step 8

Drizzle the sesame oil over the stir-fry, toss to combine, and remove from heat.

Step 9

Garnish with thinly sliced green onion and serve hot over cooked white rice.
