Instructions
- Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 1 lb thinly sliced flank steak with 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, 2 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp cornstarch. Toss well to coat and let marinate for 15 minutes.
- Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the marinated beef strips and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned but still tender. Remove beef and set aside.
- Step 3: In the same wok, add 1 medium sliced red bell pepper, 2 cups broccoli florets, and 1 large julienned carrot. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
- Step 4: Return the beef to the wok along with 1/4 cup water. Stir to combine and cook for 2 more minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the beef and vegetables.
- Step 5: Remove from heat and drizzle 1 tsp sesame oil over the stir fry. Garnish with 3 chopped green onions before serving.
