Ingredients
- 2 Pounds sirloin steak top
- 3 bell pepper Assorted Colors
- 4 Cloves garlic
- 2-3 Scotch bonnet peppers Halved, seeds and stems removed
Seasoning Mix
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons jerk seasoning
- 2 teaspoons beef seasoning or BBQ Rub
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
Liquid Flavoring
- 2 Tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 Tablespoon browning sauce
- 1 Tablespoon oyster sauce
- 2 Tablespoons green seasoning optional
- 1-2 teaspoons hot sauce
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Cut the steaks into thin strips and place in a bowl. Cut the bell peppers into strips and place in a second bowl.
- In a small bowl, combine the seasoning ingredients and mix to combine. In a 2nd bowl combine all of the liquid ingredients except the beef broth.
- Season the beef strips with half of the seasoning mix. Mix to combine and set aside.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok or large pan. Bring to medium heat or about 350 degrees. Working in batches, as to not overcrowd the pan, brown the beef strips, then remove to a bowl. The beef just needs to be browned, not cooked through.
- Add an additional tablespoon of oil to the pan, then add the bell pepper strips. Sauté the peppers until softened. Add in the minced garlic and cook 1-2 more minutes.
- Deglaze the pan with the beef broth and bring to a brief boil. Stir in the remaining liquid ingredients, remaining seasoning, and hot peppers. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce starts to thicken.
- Add the beef strips back to the pan, stir to combine, and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your desired doneness. Try not to overcook the steak.
