Ingredients
Scale
Beef and Marinade
- 1 lb beef steak (such as flank or sirloin), thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
Vegetables
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Cooking Oil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
- Heat the skillet: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat to prepare for cooking the beef and vegetables.
- Cook the beef: Add the thinly sliced beef to the hot skillet and cook until browned, approximately 5 minutes. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside to avoid overcooking.
- Sauté the vegetables: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic, bell pepper slices, and onion slices. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables become tender but still retain some crunch.
- Combine and glaze: Return the cooked beef to the skillet, pour in the soy sauce, and stir everything together. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow flavors to meld and the sauce to coat the ingredients.
- Season and serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as desired. Serve immediately while hot and sizzling.
Notes
- For a spicier kick, add a pinch of crushed red pepper flakes when sautéing the vegetables.
- Use flank or sirloin steak for best tenderness and flavor.
- Serve with steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
- Make sure to slice the beef thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness.
