01 Step

Recipe View 4 mins Heat olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium heat. Add bell peppers, onion, and garlic. Sauté until crisp-tender, about 3-4 minutes. The vegetables should be slightly softened but still retain some crunch. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. (3-4 minutes)

Recipe View 3 mins Increase the heat to medium-high. Pour soy sauce, honey, and red wine vinegar into the skillet. Let the sauce simmer for about 2-3 minutes, allowing it to reduce slightly and thicken. This will intensify the flavors. (2-3 minutes)

Recipe View 7 mins Add the thinly sliced flank steak to the skillet. Cook, stirring frequently, until the beef is browned and cooked through. This should take approximately 5-7 minutes, depending on the thickness of the steak and your desired level of doneness. Be careful not to overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary. (5-7 minutes)

Recipe View Serve immediately over rice, noodles, or quinoa. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions, if desired.

For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha to the sauce.
If you don't have flank steak, sirloin or skirt steak can be used as a substitute. Adjust cooking time accordingly.
To prevent the steak from becoming tough, be sure to slice it thinly against the grain.
Marinating the steak for 30 minutes prior to cooking can enhance its flavor and tenderness. A simple marinade of soy sauce, garlic, and ginger works well.
Serve with steamed broccoli or snow peas for a complete and balanced meal.
