Instructions

  1. First thinly slice flank steak on an angle against the grain into ¼-inch thick pieces. Transfer beef to a large bowl. Tip: if you freeze the steak for 45-60 minutes exposed to the cold air, this will allow you to slice the steak very thinly.
  2. Then marinate beef slices with marinade ingredients as listed and mix well. Let this marinate for at least 15 minutes as you work on the other ingredients.
  3. In a blender or food processor, add satay sauce ingredients as listed above and blend until smooth. Set aside.
  4. Then heat vegetable oil in a large pan on medium heat, fry marinated beef. Fry until the edges are brown and the meat is 50-60% cooked, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add in chopped bell peppers here and fry for 2 minutes.
  6. When the beef is 75% cooked, pour in the satay sauce and stir fry with the beef. Cook for 1-2 minutes until beef is cooked through and not red. Finally serve and enjoy!
