Yield: Serves 4
Ingredients: 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain; 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided; 3 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated; 2 cups broccoli florets; 1 red bell pepper, sliced; 1 carrot, julienned; 1 small onion, thinly sliced; 3 tablespoons soy sauce; 1 tablespoon oyster sauce; 1 teaspoon sesame oil; 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water; ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional); 2 green onions, sliced for garnish

Instructions

Prepare the beef

In a medium bowl, toss the sliced beef with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and cornstarch mixture. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes while preparing the vegetables.
Prepare the sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside.
Cook the beef

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

Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the wok. Add garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add onions and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add broccoli, bell pepper, and carrots and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
Combine and finish

Return the beef to the wok and pour in the sauce. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until everything is well coated and heated through. Add the cornstarch slurry and cook until the sauce thickens, about 1 minute.
Serve

Transfer to a serving platter, garnish with sliced green onions, and serve immediately with steamed rice.
