Ingredients

  • ½ pound steak (flank, sirloin, or ribeye), thinly sliced
  • ½ pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil (divided)
  • 1 red bell pepper, sliced
  • 1 cup broccoli florets
  • 1 small zucchini, sliced into half-moons
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • ¼ cup soy sauce (low sodium if preferred)
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce (or hoisin sauce)
  • 1 tablespoon honey (or brown sugar)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes. Set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Stir-fry steak for 2–3 minutes until browned but not fully cooked. Remove from pan.
  3. Add shrimp to the same pan and cook for 2–3 minutes until pink and opaque. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add remaining oil to the pan. Stir-fry bell pepper, broccoli, and zucchini for 3–4 minutes until crisp-tender.
  5. Return steak and shrimp to the pan. Pour in sauce and stir to coat everything evenly. Cook for 1–2 minutes until heated through and sauce thickens slightly.
  6. Garnish with sliced green onions and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Add mushrooms, snow peas, or baby corn for variety.
  • Serve over rice, noodles, or cauliflower rice depending on your dietary needs.
  • Swap honey for maple syrup or omit for a sugar-free version.
  • Use chili paste or sriracha for added spice.
  • To prevent overcooking, stir-fry steak and shrimp quickly over high heat.
