• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).

Step 2

In a large bowl, toss the beef cubes with soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and black pepper. Let it marinate for 15 minutes.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef cubes until browned on all sides. Remove the beef and set aside.

Step 4

In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the carrots, red bell pepper, and snap peas, and sauté for 4-5 minutes until slightly tender.

Step 5

Layer the cooked rice evenly in the bottom of a 9x13-inch casserole dish. Arrange the sautéed vegetables over the rice.

Step 6

Place the seared beef cubes on top of the vegetables. Pour the beef broth evenly over the casserole.

Step 7

Cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes.

Step 8

Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to allow the top to brown slightly.

Step 9

Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes.

Step 10

Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
