Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 cup snap peas
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
  • 3 green onions, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • Cooked rice or noodles, for serving

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the sliced beef with soy sauce and cornstarch, mixing well to coat the meat evenly. Let it marinate for about 10 minutes.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until hot. Add the marinated beef in a single layer and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Toss in the sliced bell pepper, broccoli florets, and snap peas, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender yet crisp.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Return the cooked beef to the skillet, then pour in the oyster sauce and sesame oil. Stir everything together and cook for another 2 minutes to heat through.
  6. Garnish with chopped green onions before serving over cooked rice or noodles.
