Ingredients
  

1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 large onion, sliced into rings

2 bell peppers (red and green), sliced into strips

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced

1/4 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons oyster sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 tablespoon brown sugar

Salt and pepper to taste

2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Cooked rice or noodles (for serving)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Beef: In a medium bowl, combine the sliced flank steak, soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.

    Prepare the Vegetables: While the beef is marinating, slice the onions and bell peppers. Mince the garlic and ginger, setting them aside for later use.

      Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.

        Stir-Fry the Beef: Add the marinated beef to the skillet in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches). Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned, then remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

          Cook the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Stir-fry for about 4-5 minutes until they start to soften. Add the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

            Combine and Finish: Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the vegetables. Stir everything together and cook for another 1-2 minutes to heat through and combine flavors.

              Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve the sizzling pepper steak over cooked rice or noodles.
