Ingredients
1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp cornstarch
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp sugar
1/2 cup beef broth
1 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
1 onion, sliced
2 celery stalks, sliced
1 cup bean sprouts
1 cup snow peas, trimmed
1 red bell pepper, sliced
Instructions
In a bowl, combine sliced beef with 2 tbsp soy sauce and 1 tbsp cornstarch. Let marinate for 10 minutes.
In a small bowl, mix oyster sauce, 1 tbsp soy sauce, sugar, beef broth, and 1 tbsp cornstarch to make the sauce. Set aside.
Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add beef and stir-fry until browned, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
Add remaining 2 tbsp oil to the wok. Stir-fry garlic and ginger for 30 seconds. Add onion, celery, and bell pepper; cook for 2 minutes.
Add snow peas and bean sprouts; cook for 1 minute. Return beef to the wok.
Pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables. Stir-fry until the sauce thickens and coats everything, about 1-2 minutes. Serve immediately over steamed rice.
Tips
Slice beef against the grain for tenderness.
Have all ingredients prepped before cooking, as stir-frying goes quickly.
