Instructions
Prepare Your Ingredients
Ensure all your ingredients are prepped and ready to go. This recipe comes together quickly, so having everything sliced, minced, and measured in advance is key.
Marinate the Beef
In a small bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef with half of the soy sauce, the oyster sauce (if using), and a pinch of black pepper. Let it marinate for about 5 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.
Cook the Vegetables
Heat a wok or a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. Once hot, toss in the broccoli, red bell pepper, snap peas, and onion. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp. Add the minced garlic and stir for another 30 seconds until fragrant. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set them aside.
Sear the Beef
In the same pan, add the marinated beef strips. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until the beef is browned and cooked through.
Combine and Finish
Return the vegetables to the pan with the beef. Pour in the remaining soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and the cornstarch slurry (if using). Stir everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the beef and vegetables.
Serve and Enjoy!
Serve your delicious beef stir-fry hot, either on its own or over a bed of steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy this delightful dish that’s perfect for any weeknight!
