Ingredients
Scale
Beef:
- 1 pound (454 grams) beef (flank steak, sirloin, or ribeye), thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Sauce and Seasonings:
- 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon sriracha or chili flakes
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1/4 cup water
Noodles and Vegetables:
- 8 ounces (226 grams) noodles (lo mein, rice noodles, or spaghetti)
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup bell peppers, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup carrots, julienned
- 1/2 cup snap peas or broccoli florets
- 3 green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
Instructions
- Prepare the beef by combining it with soy sauce, cornstarch, and sesame oil in a mixing bowl. Allow the meat to marinate for 10-15 minutes while assembling remaining ingredients.
- Create the flavor-packed sauce by whisking hoisin sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, honey, sriracha, minced garlic, grated ginger, and water in a separate bowl. Set aside for later use.
- Cook noodles in boiling water according to package directions until al dente. Drain thoroughly and reserve.
- Heat oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat (around 400°F). Sear marinated beef in a single layer for 2-3 minutes until edges turn golden brown and crispy. Transfer meat to a clean plate.
- In the same cooking vessel, stir-fry bell peppers, carrots, and snap peas for 2-3 minutes, maintaining their vibrant color and crisp texture.
- Reintroduce beef to the pan, pour prepared sauce over the ingredients, and toss to ensure even coating. Add cooked noodles and gently mix for 1-2 minutes until everything is heated through.
- Finish the dish by garnishing with chopped green onions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately while hot and enjoy a restaurant-quality meal prepared at home.
Notes
- Choose a tender cut like sirloin or flank steak for the most succulent and quick-cooking beef.
- Substitute rice noodles or whole wheat noodles for gluten-free or healthier alternatives that work perfectly with this sauce.
- Adjust sriracha amount to customize heat level, making the dish mild for kids or extra fiery for spice lovers.
- Replace beef with firm tofu, tempeh, or mixed mushrooms to create a delicious plant-based version of this stir-fry.
