Description

A quick and delicious dish featuring tender flank steak, crunchy bell peppers, and aromatic onions, cooked in a savory-sweet sauce.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 large green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large onion, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
  • 2 tbsp water
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds (for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Marinate the Steak: In a medium-sized bowl, combine the sliced flank steak, soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and cornstarch. Toss until the steak is evenly coated and let it marinate for 15-20 minutes.
  2. Cook the Vegetables: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced bell peppers and onions. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, just until the veggies are slightly softened but still crunchy. Remove from the pan and set aside.
  3. Cook the Steak: In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sear the marinated steak in batches, cooking each side for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove the steak and set it aside.
  4. Combine Everything: Lower the heat to medium. Add minced garlic and ginger to the skillet and sauté for about 1 minute. Return the cooked veggies and steak to the pan. Stir in water, rice vinegar, and honey. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

For extra flavor, serve with steamed jasmine rice or stir-fried noodles.
