Ingredients

• 1 cup (uncooked) Brown rice
• 2 cups Water
• 1 pound Beef sirloin, thinly sliced
• 0.25 cup Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 3 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Ginger, minced
• 2 cups Broccoli florets
• 1 large Carrot, thinly sliced on the diagonal
• 1 medium Bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 cup Snow peas
• 3 individual Scallions, sliced (green and white parts)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the brown rice under cold water to remove excess starch. Combine 1 cup of brown rice with 2 cups of water in a pot. Bring to a boil over high heat, reduce to low heat, cover, and let simmer for 45 minutes or until rice is tender. Fluff with a fork and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Mix to coat the beef evenly and marinate for 15 minutes while preparing the vegetables.

Step 3

Wash and prepare the broccoli, carrot, bell pepper, snow peas, scallions, garlic, and ginger. Set the vegetables aside in separate bowls for easy cooking.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the marinated beef to the pan in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until browned and just cooked through. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the broccoli and carrots to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3 minutes, then add the bell peppers and snow peas. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are vibrant and tender-crisp.

Step 7

Return the cooked beef to the skillet and stir to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed.

Step 8

Serve the stir-fry hot over the cooked brown rice and garnish with sliced scallions. Enjoy your Vegetable and Beef Stir Fry with Brown Rice!
