👨🍳 Instructions:
1️⃣ Marinate the Steak:
In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, cornstarch, and vegetable oil. Add the thinly sliced flank steak and toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 15 minutes to enhance tenderness and flavor.
2️⃣ Prepare the Stir-Fry Sauce:
In a small bowl, whisk together beef broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, sugar, and black pepper. Set aside for later use.
3️⃣ Cook the Steak:
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the marinated steak in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
4️⃣ Stir-Fry the Vegetables:
In the same skillet, add a bit more oil if needed. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Add the minced garlic and ginger and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
5️⃣ Combine Everything:
Return the cooked steak to the skillet. Pour in the prepared stir-fry sauce and mix well.
Slowly stir in the cornstarch slurry, allowing the sauce to thicken. Cook for 1-2 minutes until everything is well coated and sizzling hot.
6️⃣ Serve & Enjoy:
Serve the pepper steak over a bed of steamed white rice and enjoy the irresistible combination of flavors! 🍚🥩
