Ingredients
Scale
- 8 oz (225g) rice noodles
- 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (divided)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 carrot, julienned
- 3 green onions, chopped
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
- Sesame seeds for garnish
Instructions
- Boil a large pot of water. Add the rice noodles and cook according to package instructions (4-6 minutes) until al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, combine sliced beef with 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Mix well and let marinate for at least 15 minutes (up to 1 hour for more flavor).
- In a small bowl, whisk together remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, black pepper, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside.
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add marinated beef in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary). Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add more oil if needed. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add red bell pepper, broccoli, and carrot. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until tender but crisp. Add chopped green onions and stir for another minute.
- Return cooked beef to the skillet with vegetables. Pour prepared sauce over the mixture and toss to coat. Add cooked rice noodles and gently toss to combine, heating through for 2-3 minutes.
- Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Remove from heat.
- Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds and additional chopped green onions if desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- For added heat, include more red pepper flakes.
- Feel free to substitute vegetables based on your preference or seasonal availability.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet with a splash of water or soy sauce.
