Ingredients
- 2 1/2 - 3 pounds flank steak thinly sliced
- ⅓ cup cornstarch
- 2/3 cups oil
- 2 red bell peppers cubed
- 1 onion cubed
Sauce Ingredients
- ¼ cup sugar
- 3 tablespoons ketchup
- 6 tablespoons hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 4 teaspoons Sweet chili sauce
- 2 teaspoons vinegar
- ¼ cup water
- 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
- sesame seeds optional for garnish
Instructions
- Slice the flank steak against the grain into thin slices. Toss the beef in cornstarch until lightly coated.
- Add the oil to a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- When the oil is hot, add the beef in a single layer and cook quickly to brown the outside. You may have to do more than one batch.
- Add the beef to the slow cooker.
- Add the bell pepper and onion to the slow cooker.
- Mix the sugar, ketchup, hoisin, soy sauce, sweet chili sauce, vinegar, water, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Pour it over the beef and veggies and stir.
- Cook on low for 3 hours, stirring once or twice to prevent sticking.
- Garnish with sesame seeds and serve over rice or noodle.s
Notes
- I recommend using flank steak, as it has the ideal texture for this dish. Before you begin cooking, slice the meat thinly and against the grain.
- If you prefer, you can substitute the beef with chicken or tofu if you're a vegetarian.
- You can also substitute your favorite vegetables. Broccoli, snow peas, or baby corn make great additions to the recipe.
