Ingredients
  

1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (divided)

1 green bell pepper, sliced into strips

1 red bell pepper, sliced into strips

1 onion, sliced into rings

3 cloves garlic, minced

1-inch piece of ginger, minced

1 tablespoon oyster sauce

2 tablespoons hoisin sauce

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

1 teaspoon sesame oil

Salt and pepper to taste

Cooked white rice or steamed rice for serving

Instructions
 

Marinate the Steak: In a bowl, combine the sliced flank steak with soy sauce and cornstarch. Toss well to ensure each piece is coated. Let it marinate for about 15-20 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.

    Prep the Vegetables: Slice the bell peppers and onion. Mince the garlic and ginger. Set aside.

      Cook the Steak: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the marinated steak in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches) and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.

        Stir-Fry the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the sliced onions, garlic, ginger, green bell pepper, and red bell pepper. Stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

          Combine Ingredients: Return the cooked steak to the skillet with the vegetables. Add oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Stir well to combine everything and let it cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

            Serve: Serve the pepper steak hot over a bed of cooked white rice or steamed rice. Garnish with sliced green onions or sesame seeds if desired.
