Ingredients

• 1 pound Beef flank steak
• 1 medium Red bell pepper
• 1 medium Yellow bell pepper
• 1 medium Green bell pepper
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 3 minced Garlic cloves
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.25 cup Water
• 2 sliced Green onions (scallions)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the beef flank steak thinly against the grain into bite-sized strips.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of water to create a marinade. Toss the sliced steak in the marinade and set aside for 15 minutes.

Step 3

While the steak marinates, slice the red, yellow, and green bell peppers into thin strips and mince the garlic.

Step 4

In a small bowl, prepare the stir-fry sauce by combining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of oyster sauce, 1/4 cup of water, and 1/2 teaspoon of ground black pepper. Mix well and set aside.

Step 5

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated steak and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned but not fully cooked. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir-fry the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the sliced bell peppers to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until they start to soften but remain slightly crisp.

Step 8

Return the cooked steak to the skillet. Pour in the stir-fry sauce and toss everything together to coat. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and the steak is fully cooked.

Step 9

Garnish with sliced green onions before serving. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
