Quick Pepper Steak

Marinade:

1/4 C soy sauce- Make sure it's GF!!

1/3 C water

2 T rice vinegar

1 T corn starch

1/8 t black pepper

1 lb flank steak- slice it thin

2 T EVOO

12 mini sweet peppers- sliced

2 scallions- sliced into 1 inch pieces

1 T fresh ginger- minced

4 garlic cloves- minced

sesame seeds- just for a fancy garnish

Add all marinade ingredients to a large bowl and stir to combine. Add the sliced steak, and toss in the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.

Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the sweet peppers and white part of the scallions, ginger, garlic, and saute for 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Transfer to a plate.  Add the remaining 1 Tbsp. oil to the pan. Remove the steak from the marinade with a slotted spoon (reserving the marinade) and saute about 2-3 minutes until browned, stirring occasionally. Transfer steak to plate with the veggies.  Add the reserved marinade to the skillet and cook for 1 minute or until thickened. Add the steak, veggies and green parts of the scallions to the skillet, and stir to combine. Cook for an additional minute, then remove from heat.  Garnish with the green part of the scallions and some sesame seeds (these aren't in my picture... sorry!)


Serve with a side of steamed Asian veges and some brown rice!
