Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 stalks celery, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed
• 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
• 1 pound snow peas
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 medium carrot, sliced
• 1 medium sweet onion, chopped
• 1 pound New York strip steak, thinly sliced
• 1 medium red bell pepper, seeded and cut into chunks
• 1.5 teaspoons white sugar
• 0.75 cup green peas

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place sliced steak in a large bowl; sprinkle cornstarch over top and toss to coat.

Step 2

Whisk soy sauce and sugar together in a small bowl until sugar dissolves; pour over the steak. Mix and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic to the hot oil; cook and stir until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in oyster sauce and season with salt and pepper.

Step 4

Add snow peas, green peas, carrot, celery, and bell pepper; cook and stir until vegetables are crisp-tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Remove vegetables from the skillet.

Step 5

Remove steak from the marinade, shaking off any excess moisture; discard the marinade.

Step 6

Heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil in the same skillet. Fry steak in the hot skillet to your desired degree of doneness, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium. Add the vegetables back to the skillet; mix well and cook until just heated through. Serve hot.
