2 tbsp cornstarch

2 tbsp soy sauce

2 tbsp sesame oil

For the sauce:

1 tbsp oyster sauce

2 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tbsp hoisin sauce

1 tbsp sugar

1/4 cup water

Optional garnish:

1 tsp sesame seeds

2 tbsp green onions, chopped

Directions 👩‍🍳

1️⃣ Marinate the steak:

In a bowl, toss the sliced steak with cornstarch and soy sauce. Let it marinate for 15 minutes while you prepare the vegetables and sauce.

2️⃣ Prepare the sauce:

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, sugar, and water. Set aside.

3️⃣ Cook the steak:

Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated steak and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.

4️⃣ Cook the vegetables:

Add the remaining sesame oil to the skillet. Sauté the onions, bell peppers, garlic, and ginger for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened but still crisp.

5️⃣ Combine and simmer:

Return the steak to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Stir well to coat the steak and vegetables. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.

6️⃣ Serve:

Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
