Instructions
Marinate beef
Place the beef, ginger, garlic, 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and red pepper flakes (if using) in a bowl. Mix to combine well. Place in a FoodSaver® bag and vacuum seal to marinate. Let it marinate anywhere from 1 hour to overnight.
Make the Stir Fry
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large pan on high heat. Add the marinated beef to the pan and cook to desired doneness. I cooked one side for about 4 minutes then flipped to the other side and cooked for about the same time. Remove beef from pan and transfer to a bowl.
Add the remaining one tablespoon of oil to the pan. Saute the onions until fragrant.
Add back beef to the pan and stir.
Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, black pepper and salt to taste and stir.
Add the chopped peppers, green onions and let them sizzle with the rest of the ingredients for about 2 minutes.
Turn of the heat. Serve over boiled rice or in a wrap (flatbread). Enjoy!
Notes
1. I added red pepper flakes to my meat because I love the heat it gives to this stir-fry. However, feel free to omit it or reduce the quantity of red pepper flakes if you have a low tolerance to heat.2. I used bell peppers here but feel free to use any veggies you like. That's the beauty of a stir-fry, You can customize it to suit your taste. It is also a great way to use leftover veggies!
