  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) beef (flank steak, sirloin, or ribeye), thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil for stir frying
  • 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • ½ cup snap peas, ends trimmed
  • 2 green onions, chopped (for garnish)
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, optional, for garnish
  • Steamed rice, optional, for serving

Instructions

  1. Thinly slice the beef against the grain for maximum tenderness. Marinate in soy sauce, garlic, and ginger for 15–30 minutes if desired.
  2. Whisk together soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef in a single layer and sear 2-3 minutes without stirring. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add remaining vegetable oil to the pan. Stir-fry carrots, bell pepper, and broccoli for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
  5. Add snap peas and stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Return beef to the pan along with the sauce. Stir to coat everything evenly. Cook 1-2 more minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
  7. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve over steamed rice or enjoy alone.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, marinate the beef for at least 15 minutes before cooking.
  • Adjust vegetables to your preference or seasonality.
