Instructions

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a hot skillet or wok over high heat.
Add the beef slices in a single layer and sear for 1–2 minutes per side until browned but still tender. Remove and set aside.
Pour in the remaining oil, then sauté the garlic and ginger for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the bok choy and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until vibrant green and lightly charred.
Return the beef to the pan. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and black pepper.
Stir in the cornstarch slurry and toss until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and bok choy evenly.
Remove from heat and serve hot.

Notes

Swap beef for chicken, shrimp, or tofu for variation.

Add sesame oil before serving for extra flavor.

Add bell peppers or snap peas for extra crunch.

Use gluten-free sauces for a gluten-free version.

Leftovers keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
