This quick weeknight dinner brings the heat with bold, sizzling flavor! A spicy pepper steak stir-fry that’s easy to make and packed with taste.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs flank or sirloin steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 orange bell pepper or carrot strips (for color and crunch)
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 tsp grated ginger
  • 1 tsp chili flakes (or to taste)
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water (optional for thickening)
  • Neutral oil for stir-frying

Instructions

  1. Heat oil in a hot skillet or wok. Add steak and sear until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. In the same pan, add more oil if needed and toss in onions, carrots, and bell peppers. Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes until slightly softened.
  3. Stir in garlic, ginger, soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin, and chili flakes. For thicker sauce, add cornstarch slurry now. Let it bubble up.
  4. Return steak to the pan and coat everything in the sauce. Stir-fry for 2 more minutes.
  5. Serve hot with jasmine rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds or chopped scallions.

Notes

  • For less spice, reduce chili flakes.
  • Slice steak thinly for quick cooking.
  • Use fresh ginger for best flavor.
