Ingredients

• 1 pound beef flank steak
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 large red bell pepper
• 1 large green bell pepper
• 1 large yellow bell pepper
• 3 garlic cloves
• 1 inch ginger
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 quarter cup water
• 2 stalks green onions
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Directions

Step 1

Slice the beef flank steak thinly against the grain into bite-sized strips.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, cornstarch, and sesame oil. Add beef slices and mix until well coated. Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.

Step 3

Meanwhile, seed and thinly slice the red, green, and yellow bell peppers. Mince the garlic cloves and finely grate the ginger. Thinly slice the green onions.

Step 4

In a small bowl, mix the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, oyster sauce, and water. Set aside.

Step 5

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the sliced bell peppers to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.

Step 8

Return the cooked beef to the skillet, then pour in the reserved sauce mixture. Stir well to combine and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.

Step 9

Remove from heat, garnish with sliced green onions and sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.
