Ingredients

Recipe: Pepper Steak

1 1/2 lbs ribeye steak or sirloin, cut into 1 inch cubes

1 medium red bell pepper, cut into bite sized pieces

1 green bell pepper, cut into bite sized pieces

1 medium sweet onion, cut into bite sized pieces

4-5 garlic cloves, finely minced

1/2 tsp ginger, grated or finely chopped

Cooking oil

Marinade—

2 tbsp oyster sauce

1 tbsp dark soy sauce

1 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp ground black pepper

1/8 tsp baking soda

Sauce—

1/2 cup water

2 tbsp dark soy sauce

2 tbsp. oyster sauce

1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp sugar

1/2 tsp Sesame oil, or to taste

Slurry—

1 tbsp cornstarch

2 tbsp water

Directions

Prep veggies. Set aside.

In a bowl, marinade the ribeye with oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, regular soy sauce, black pepper, and baking soda. Mix well and set aside.

In a bowl, combine water, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, soy sauce, and sugar. Mix well and set aside.

In a wok or large pan, heat oil then sauté ginger and garlic for 10-15 seconds. Then add the marinaded meat. Spread the meat and let it sit to slightly caramelized about 1-2 mins on each side.

Once the meat is 80% cooked through add the peppers and onions. Toss and cook beef through and I’m sure that the peppers and onions still have a bite to them about 2 to 3 more minutes.

Pour in the sauce and bring to a boil. About 2-3 minutes.

Add cornstarch slurry to the sauce and stir to thicken immediately.

I had a drizzle of sesame oil and give it one last toss. Serve by itself or over rice. Enjoy!
