Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp ginger, minced
  • 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tsp water (optional)
  • 1 lb flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 8 oz lo mein noodles (or spaghetti)
  • 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
  • 1 carrot, julienned
  • 1 cup snow peas or snap peas
  • 2 green onions, cut into 2-inch pieces
  • 2 tbsp oil for stir-frying (vegetable or canola)

Instructions

  1. Cook noodles according to package instructions. Drain and toss with a little sesame oil to prevent sticking.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and cornstarch slurry (if using).
  3. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Stir-fry beef slices until browned and just cooked. Remove and set aside.
  4. In the same pan, add more oil if needed. Stir-fry bell pepper, carrot, and peas for 2–3 minutes until crisp-tender.
  5. Return beef and noodles to the pan. Pour in the sauce and toss everything together until evenly coated and heated through.
  6. Add green onions and stir for another minute before serving.

Notes

  • Slice beef thinly against the grain for tenderness.
  • Customize with mushrooms, broccoli, or baby corn.
  • Swap noodles for zucchini noodles for a low-carb option.
  • To spice it up, add red pepper flakes or sriracha to the sauce.
