Elevate your dinner experience with this tantalizing Pepper Steak recipe! Bursting with savory flavors and vibrant colors, this dish promises to satisfy your taste buds with its perfect balance of spices and tender beef slices.
Slice the beef thinly against the grain for maximum tenderness. In a bowl, combine the sliced beef with soy sauce, minced garlic, ground black pepper, and cornstarch. Toss until the beef is evenly coated, then set aside to marinate for 10-15 minutes.
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers to the pan and sauté until they are tender-crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the marinated beef slices in a single layer. Cook undisturbed for 1-2 minutes to allow them to sear and develop a golden crust. Stir-fry until the beef is cooked to your desired doneness, then return the cooked vegetables to the pan.
In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce and cornstarch until smooth. Pour the mixture into the skillet with the beef and vegetables. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and vegetables evenly.
Garnish the Pepper Steak with freshly chopped green onions or sesame seeds for extra flavor and visual appeal. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete and satisfying meal.
