Print Recipe

Chinese Pepper Steak is a flavorful stir-fry featuring tender strips of beef, vibrant bell peppers, and a savory black pepper sauce, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 1 large green bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 large red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • Salt to taste

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, combine the flank steak slices, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch. Mix well and marinate for 15 minutes.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Stir-fry the marinated beef until just browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove beef and set aside.
  3. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the pan. Sauté garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  4. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers. Stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. Return the beef to the pan. Pour in the beef broth, sprinkle in sugar, and add freshly ground black pepper. Stir to combine.
  6. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat the beef and vegetables evenly.
  7. Drizzle with sesame oil, adjust salt to taste, and give a final toss.
  8. Serve hot with steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

For extra flavor, try adding sliced mushrooms or a splash of Shaoxing wine during cooking. Serve with steamed jasmine rice for a complete meal.
