A delicious and satisfying dish combining tender beef, vibrant bell peppers, and aromatic onions, perfect for a quick weeknight meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef steak (sirloin, flank, or ribeye), thinly sliced against the grain
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 onion, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup beef broth or water
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch. Add the thinly sliced beef and toss to coat. Allow to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the beef slices in a single layer, searing for 1-2 minutes on each side until browned but not fully cooked. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Sauté the sliced bell peppers and onion for 3-4 minutes until tender but crisp.
  4. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for another minute until fragrant.
  5. Return the seared beef to the skillet, add the beef broth or water, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens and the beef is cooked through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Serve the pepper steak hot with rice or noodles.

Notes

Slice the beef against the grain for maximum tenderness. Use high heat for searing to maintain juiciness.
