Cook time: 10 min
Total time: 25 min
Yield: Serves 4
Ingredients: 1 lb (450g) flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain; 2 tablespoons soy sauce, divided; 1 tablespoon cornstarch; 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided; 8 oz (225g) snow peas, strings removed; 1 medium red bell pepper, thinly sliced; 3 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated; 3 green onions, sliced diagonally; 1 tablespoon oyster sauce; 1 teaspoon sesame oil; 1 tablespoon rice vinegar; 1 teaspoon brown sugar; ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

Marinate the beef

In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and cornstarch. Toss to coat evenly and let marinate for at least 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
Prepare the sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, and brown sugar. Set aside.
Stir-fry the beef

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until nearly smoking. Add the marinated beef in a single layer and cook without stirring for 1 minute. Then stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes until beef is browned but still slightly pink inside. Remove beef from the wok and set aside.
Cook the vegetables

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the same wok. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add snow peas and bell pepper, stir-frying for 2-3 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
Combine and finish

Return the beef to the wok along with any accumulated juices. Add the prepared sauce and red pepper flakes if using. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until everything is well coated and heated through.
Garnish and serve

Add the green onions and toss briefly. Transfer to a serving platter and serve immediately with steamed rice.
