Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or sesame oil
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional for richness)
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (for thickening)
- Sesame seeds and chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Start by thinly slicing the beef across the grain. Marinate the beef in 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 teaspoon cornstarch for 10 minutes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add beef slices in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil if needed. Add garlic, ginger, and sliced onions, stirring until fragrant. Add broccoli and bell peppers, stir-frying for 4-5 minutes until crisp-tender.
- Return the beef to the skillet. Pour in remaining soy sauce and oyster sauce if using. Mix well and cook for another minute.
- Thicken the sauce with the cornstarch slurry, stirring until glossy. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.
Notes
- Use lean beef cuts like sirloin or flank for a healthier option.
- Fresh, crisp vegetables add texture and nutrients.
- Adjust soy sauce for lower sodium intake.
- Add a splash of rice vinegar or chili sauce for extra flavor.
