  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Description

A savory and flavorful dish featuring tender slices of beef, vibrant vegetables, and lo mein noodles all tossed in a delicious sauce. Perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz lo mein noodles
  • 1 lb flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup snow peas
  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 3 green onions, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon ginger, minced

For the Sauce:

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup beef broth

Instructions

  • Cook the lo mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and beef broth to make the sauce.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the thinly sliced flank steak and cook until browned, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
  • Add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Add the red and yellow bell peppers, snow peas, shredded carrots, green onions, garlic, and ginger. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
  • Return the steak to the skillet, along with the cooked noodles. Pour the sauce over the top and toss to coat everything evenly.
  • Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the sauce has thickened and everything is heated through.
  • Serve immediately, garnished with additional green onions if desired.

Notes

Feel free to substitute the beef with chicken or shrimp. Adjust the vegetables based on what you have available.
