Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 2 bell peppers (red and green), sliced
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • Cooked rice, for serving
  • Green onions, for garnish

Instructions

  2. Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and swirl to coat.
  3. Add beef strips in a single layer. Sear for 1-2 minutes without stirring, then stir-fry for 2 more minutes until just cooked. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add remaining oil to wok. Stir-fry garlic for 30 seconds, then add bell peppers and onion. Cook 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
  5. Return beef to wok, add sauces, and toss everything together for 1 minute until well coated and heated through.

  • Have all ingredients prepped before starting as stir-frying happens quickly
  • Adjust heat level by adding chili peppers or red pepper flakes if desired
  • Leftovers store well in refrigerator for up to 3 days
  • For gluten-free version, use tamari instead of soy sauce
