Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound flank steak thinly sliced against the grain
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil for frying
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper sliced
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes adjust to taste
  • 3 cups cooked white rice
  • 2 green onions chopped (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Method
 

  1. In a large bowl, combine the cornstarch, flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Add the sliced flank steak and toss until well coated.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the coated beef in batches, frying until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per batch. Remove and drain on paper towels.
  3. In the same skillet, add the sliced red and green bell peppers, onion, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  4. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, and red pepper flakes. Pour this sauce over the stir-fried vegetables and bring to a simmer.
  5. Add the crispy beef back into the skillet, tossing everything together until the beef is well coated in the sauce. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.
  6. Serve the crispy chili beef over cooked white rice and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
