Ingredients
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1/3 cup water
- 2 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. corn starch
- 1/8 tsp. coarsely-ground black pepper (or more/less to taste)
- 1 lb. thinly sliced flank steak or sirloin, cut diagonally across the grain into thin strips
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 12 mini sweet peppers, thinly sliced (or 2 regular-sized bell peppers, thinly sliced)
- 2 scallions, sliced diagonally into 1 inch pieces, white and green pieces separated
- 2 Tbsp. minced fresh ginger
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
Method
Tip in all marinade ingredients to a large bowl or ziplock bag, and stir to combine. Tip in the sliced steak, and toss in the marinade. Cover/seal and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
Warm 1 Tbsp. Oil in a large saute pan over medium-a hot burner. Tip in the sweet peppers and white part of the scallions, ginger, garlic, and saute for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Move to a plate.
Tip in the remaining 1 Tbsp. Oil to the saute pan. Lift half the steak from the marinade with a slotted spoon (reserving the marinade) and saute about 2-3 minutes until browned, stirring occasionally. Move steak to plate with the veggies. Cook the remaining steak, then move to plate.
Tip in the reserved marinade to the skillet and cook for 1 minute or until thickened. Tip in the steak, veggies and green parts of the scallions to the skillet, and stir to combine. Leave for an additional minute, then remove from heat.
Plate while it is hot over rice or quinoa.
