Description

A quick and flavorful weeknight dish featuring juicy beef, crisp bell peppers, and caramelized onions in a savory sauce.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb Flank or Sirloin Steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium Onion, yellow or white preferred
  • 2 medium Bell Peppers, any color, sliced
  • 1/4 cup Soy Sauce, low sodium if preferred
  • 2 tbsp Oyster Sauce, for deeper flavor
  • 1-2 tsp Ground Black Pepper, to taste
  • 1 tsp Cornstarch, to thicken the sauce


Instructions

  1. Slice the steak thinly and heat a skillet over high heat.
  2. Add 2 tablespoons of oil and quickly cook the beef until just barely pink, then remove it from the skillet.
  3. Add sliced onions and bell peppers to the skillet, stirring until they gain color but remain crunchy.
  4. Whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, water, black pepper, and cornstarch in a small bowl.
  5. Pour the sauce into the pan, add the beef back, and cook for 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and clings to the meat and vegetables.
  6. Serve hot over steamed rice.

Notes

For best results, do not overcrowd the pan and keep the heat high for perfect searing.
