🥩 Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
500g flank steak or sirloin (sliced into bite-sized pieces)
1 large red bell pepper (chopped into chunks)
1 large green bell pepper (chopped into chunks)
1 large onion (cut into wedges)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 tsp fresh ginger (grated)
2 tbsp vegetable oil (for cooking)
Toasted sesame seeds (for garnish)
The Savory Glaze (Sauce):
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp honey or brown sugar
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp cornstarch (dissolved in 2 tbsp cold water)
1/2 cup beef broth or water
1 tsp sesame oil
👨🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions
Prepare the Beef:
Slice the beef against the grain into tender, bite-sized pieces. Season lightly with salt and black pepper.
Mix the Sauce:
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), oyster sauce, beef broth, sesame oil, and the cornstarch slurry until smooth. Set aside.
Sear the Beef:
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the beef pieces in a single layer and sear undisturbed for 2–3 minutes until nicely browned on both sides. Remove the beef and set it aside on a plate.
Sauté the Vegetables:
In the same skillet, add the remaining oil. Toss in the sliced onions, red bell peppers, and green bell peppers. Stir-fry over high heat for 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp and slightly charred at the edges. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
Combine & Glaze:
Return the seared beef back into the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the prepared sauce mixture directly over the top.
Simmer & Thicken:
Bring everything to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Let it simmer for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens into a glossy, beautiful glaze that coats every piece of beef and vegetable.
Garnish & Serve:
Remove from heat, sprinkle generously with toasted sesame seeds, and serve hot in a sizzling skillet.
