Ingredients

• 500 grams Beef (sirloin, flank, or ribeye), thinly sliced
• 120 ml Soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons Brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 60 ml Water
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 cup Bell peppers (red, yellow, or green), sliced
• 1 cup Carrots, julienned
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
• 1 stalk Green onions, sliced (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger to make the teriyaki sauce.

Step 2

Transfer half of the teriyaki sauce to a zip-top bag or shallow dish and add the sliced beef. Let it marinate for at least 20 minutes or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.

Step 3

While the beef marinates, prepare the vegetables by cutting the broccoli into small florets, slicing the bell peppers, and julienning the carrots.

Step 4

In a cup or small bowl, combine cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Set aside.

Step 5

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Drain the beef, discarding the used marinade, and sear the beef in batches for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet and stir fry the broccoli, bell peppers, and carrots for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.

Step 7

Return the beef to the skillet along with the reserved teriyaki sauce. Stir to combine.

Step 8

Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir well. Allow the sauce to simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened and glossy.

Step 9

Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions if desired. Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
