Pepper Steak Stir-Fry
Ingredients
  • 1 pound beef top sirloin steak
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 red onion, cut into 1-inch squares
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch squares
  • 2 tomatoes, cut into wedges
Instructions
1
Cut the steak into 1/2-inch thick slices by slicing it in a perpendicular direction to its natural fibers.
2
Combine soy sauce, sugar, cornstarch, and ginger in a bowl and whisk until the sugar is fully incorporated and the mixture is well-mixed.
3
Place the steak slices into the marinade, stirring until they are evenly coated with the sauce.
4
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat, and cook the steak strips in batches to prevent overcrowding.
5
Cook and stir-fry the steak until it is nicely browned on all sides, about 3 minutes, and transfer the cooked meat to a bowl.
6
Repeat with the remaining steak slices, adding more oil as needed, and set the cooked meat aside.
7
Return the cooked steak strips to the hot wok, adding an onion along with it.
8
Stir-fry the steak and onion together until the onion is softened, about 2 minutes, then add a green pepper.
9
Continue cooking and stirring the mixture until the peppers have turned bright green and become tender, about 2 minutes more.
10
Add tomatoes to the wok and stir everything together to combine flavors, then serve.
