Ingredients
  

1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain

3 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon oyster sauce

2 teaspoons cornstarch

2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided

2 bell peppers (1 red, 1 green), sliced into strips

1 large onion, sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1-inch piece ginger, grated

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 teaspoon sesame oil

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Cooked rice (for serving)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Steak: In a mixing bowl, combine the sliced flank steak with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch. Mix well to coat the steak evenly and let it marinate for about 15-20 minutes.

    Prep the Vegetables: While the steak marinates, prepare the bell peppers, onion, garlic, and ginger. Set aside.

      Heat the Wok: In a large wok or skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over high heat until shimmering. Add the marinated steak to the hot pan in a single layer. Sear for about 2-3 minutes, allowing the steak to develop a nice crust. Remove the steak from the pan and set it aside.

        Stir-fry the Vegetables: In the same wok, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the onion, bell peppers, and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring quickly for an additional minute until fragrant.

          Combine and Finish: Return the steak to the wok, pour in sesame oil, and add black pepper. Toss everything together, stirring constantly for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring all ingredients are well combined and heated through.

            Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve the sizzling pepper steak over cooked rice for a fulfilling meal.
