Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 bell peppers (any color), sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 teaspoons brown sugar
  • 2 cups cooked white or brown rice (for serving)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the thinly sliced beef and cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the onion and bell peppers. Cook for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
  4. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  6. Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables, tossing everything together until well coated and heated through, about 2 minutes.
  7. Serve the beef and pepper mixture over the cooked rice. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.

Notes

For more flavor, marinate the beef with soy sauce and ginger for 30 minutes before cooking. Use a mix of different colored bell peppers for visual appeal. Adjust sauce ingredients to taste.
