Description

A flavorful stir-fry dish featuring tender flank steak and colorful vegetables, perfect for any family dinner.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ginger, minced
  • 8 oz lo mein noodles (or spaghetti)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1/2 cup sliced bell peppers (any color)
  • 1/2 cup snow peas (optional)
  • 3 green onions, sliced


Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil. Add the flank steak, toss to coat, and let it marinate for 15 minutes.
  2. Cook the lo mein noodles per package instructions. Drain and set them aside for later.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 teaspoon sugar, 1 teaspoon minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon minced ginger. This sauce packs an amazing punch.
  4. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Stir-fry the marinated beef for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove the beef and set it aside.
  5. In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the shredded carrots, broccoli florets, sliced bell peppers, and snow peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the veggies are tender-crisp.
  6. Add the cooked noodles and beef back to the skillet. Pour the prepared sauce over the mixture, tossing everything for 2-3 minutes over medium heat until well-coated.
  7. Finish with sliced green onions as a garnish. Serve hot and enjoy!
