Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, combine 12 oz thinly sliced flank steak with 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tsp cornstarch dissolved in 2 tbsp water; toss and set aside for 10 minutes to marinate.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the marinated beef in a single layer and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until just browned; remove beef and set aside.
  3. Step 3: Reduce heat to medium-high, add 1 tbsp sesame oil, then add 2 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Step 4: Add 1 medium thinly sliced red bell pepper and 1 1/2 cups broccoli florets, stir-frying for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  5. Step 5: Return beef to the wok, add 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp brown sugar, 3 sliced green onions, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes if using; toss everything together and cook for 1-2 minutes until sauce thickens and coats all ingredients.
  6. Step 6: Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
