Pepper Steak Stir Fry

This dish is all about that tender, thinly sliced steak mixed with colorful bell peppers. You won’t believe how simple it is to get this meal on the table!

Ingredients

1 lb thinly sliced steak (sirloin or flank steak works best)
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce (optional)
1 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp vegetable oil
Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

Start by marinating the sliced steak in a bowl with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch for about 15 minutes. This will help to tenderize the meat and infuse those flavors.
While the steak is marinating, chop up your vegetables - bell peppers and onion. Set them aside so they’re ready to go.
Heat a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add one tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once it’s nice and hot, add the marinated steak in a single layer. Let it sear for about 2-3 minutes on one side before stirring; this gives it a nice color.
Stir the steak until it’s cooked through, about 4-5 minutes total. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Toss in the sliced onions, bell peppers, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften but still have a bit of crunch!
Add the cooked steak back to the pan. Stir everything together and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Make sure everything is well mixed and heated through.
Season with salt and pepper to taste, and it’s ready to serve! Pair it with some rice or noodles for a complete meal.

This pepper steak stir fry is sure to become a favorite in your household. Not only is it filled with vibrant colors and tasty ingredients, but it’s also quick to prepare. Enjoy!
