📝 Ingredients

• 1/4 cup soy sauce (or coconut aminos)
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 2 medium garlic cloves (minced or grated)
• 1 tablespoon minced ginger (or ginger paste)
• 1 tablespoon honey (or brown sugar (omit if using coconut aminos))
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon avocado oil
• 1 large onion (cut into 1 inch strips)
• 2 medium garlic cloves (minced)
• 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 10 ounces broccoli florets
• 1 red bell pepper (cut into thin slices)
• 1 yellow bell pepper (cut into thin slices)
• 1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak (cut into thin strips)
• 3 green onions (thinly sliced)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Make the stir fry sauce: In a small bowl, combine all sauce ingredients with a fork or whisk, breaking up any clumps from the cornstarch. Set aside or place in the fridge.
2. 2Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. When hot, add oil in the sesame and avocado oils.
3. 3When oil begins to shimmer, add in onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. Sauté, stirring constantly, for 1 to 2 minutes, until everything is fragrant.
4. 4Add in broccoli, red bell pepper and yellow bell pepper. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes, until softened, but broccoli still has a bright green color. Transfer veggies from pan into a bowl and set aside while cooking the beef.
5. 5Add another 1-2 tablespoons of oil if your pan is looking dry. Add beef slices to pan and sear for 1 to 2 minutes per side, getting a good sear on each side.
6. 6Once cooked on both sides, return veggies to the pan and add in sauce. Toss and let sauce thicken for 2 to 3 minutes.
7. 7Serve as-is or over rice or noodles, garnished with thinly sliced green onion and sesame seeds.
