Equipment

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • wok

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz flank steak (thinly sliced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 2 cups string beans
  • 1 red bell pepper (sliced)
  • 1/4 cup green onions (sliced)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Stir Fry Sauce

  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions
 

  • Make the Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, lime juice, honey, and sesame oil. Set aside.
  • Cook the Beef: Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and sear the beef strips until browned, about 3–4 minutes. Remove from the wok and set aside.
  • Cook the Veggies: Reduce the heat to medium and toss in the minced garlic, string beans, and red bell pepper. Stir-fry for about a minute until the veggies are tender but still crisp.
  • Combine and Sauce: Add the beef back to the wok and pour in the stir fry sauce. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Cook for another 1–2 minutes.
  • Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle with green onions and sesame seeds for a fresh, nutty finish.
