Ingredients

• 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 inch ginger, minced
• 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 small onion, thinly sliced
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 cup snap peas
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/2 cup beef broth
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

1. In a large bowl, combine the beef slices with soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, sugar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well and let it marinate for 15 minutes.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.
3. In the same wok, add the remaining tablespoon of oil and sauté the garlic and ginger until fragrant, about 1 minute.
4. Add the onion, bell peppers, broccoli, and snap peas to the wok. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
5. In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth, soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and sugar until well combined. Pour the sauce into the wok and stir to coat the vegetables.
6. Return the cooked beef to the wok and toss everything together. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce has thickened and the beef is heated through.
7. Serve the savory beef stir fry hot with steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy!
