Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain

2 cups broccoli florets

1 medium carrot, julienned

1 red bell pepper, sliced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tablespoons fresh ginger, minced

3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons oyster sauce

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 tablespoon sesame oil

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 cup cooked jasmine rice (or any rice of your choice)

1 tablespoon sesame seeds (for garnish)

Salt and pepper to taste

Optional: sliced green onions for garnish

Instructions
 

Marinate the Beef: In a medium mixing bowl, combine the thinly sliced flank steak with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly until the beef is well-coated. Allow it to marinate for about 15 minutes while you prepare the vegetables.

    Cook the Rice: If not already prepared, cook the jasmine rice according to the package instructions. Once cooked, fluff the rice with a fork and set it aside to keep warm.

      Stir-Fry the Vegetables: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the broccoli florets, julienned carrot, and sliced red bell pepper. Stir-fry the vegetables for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften while maintaining their vibrant color. Add half of the minced garlic and minced ginger, and stir-fry for an additional minute or until fragrant. Remove the cooked vegetables from the pan and set them aside.

        Sear the Beef: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. When the oil is hot, add the marinated beef in a single layer. Sear the beef for about 2 minutes without stirring, allowing it to develop a nice crust. Flip the beef slices and cook for another 1-2 minutes until browned and fully cooked.

          Combine Everything: Return the sautéed vegetables to the pan with the cooked beef. Pour in the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Toss all the ingredients together gently and stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is evenly coated and heated through.

            Serve: To serve, create a bed of fluffy jasmine rice on each plate and spoon the sizzling beef and broccoli mixture over the top. Finish by sprinkling with sesame seeds and garnish with sliced green onions if desired. Enjoy your delightful and satisfying meal!
