Ingredients
  

  • 1 pound flank steak sliced thinly against the grain
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper sliced
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon chili paste adjust to taste
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1/4 cup green onions chopped (for garnish)
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Method
 

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced flank steak and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers, onion, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, chili paste, and sesame oil. Pour this sauce over the vegetables in the skillet and bring to a simmer.
  4. Return the cooked beef to the skillet and toss everything together until the beef is coated in the sauce and heated through, about 2-3 minutes.
  5. Serve immediately, garnished with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
