Ingredients
1 lb (450g) beef sirloin, thinly sliced
2 cups cooked white or brown rice
2 bell peppers (red and green), sliced
1 small onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the minced garlic and sliced onion to the pan. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant and translucent.
- Add the sliced beef to the pan and stir-fry until browned, about 3-4 minutes.
- Toss in the sliced bell peppers and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the peppers are tender-crisp.
- Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for 1-2 minutes to combine all the flavors.
- Remove from heat and serve the beef and pepper mixture over the cooked rice.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving.
Notes
For a vegetarian option, swap beef for tofu or tempeh.
For extra spice, add more red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha.
Consider using quinoa or cauliflower rice for a low-carb alternative.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the fridge.
Reheat in a skillet with a splash of water or soy sauce to prevent drying out.
