Ingredients
- 8 oz chow mein noodles
- 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 1 cup bell peppers, sliced
- 1 cup bean sprouts
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Cook the Noodles: In a large pot of boiling water, cook the chow mein noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, combine the sliced beef with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch. Let it marinate for about 15 minutes.
- Sauté the Beef: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until browned and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
- Stir-Fry the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add garlic, bell peppers, and green onions. Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
- Combine Everything: Add the cooked noodles and beef back into the skillet. Toss everything together, making sure the noodles are well coated in the sauce. Add bean sprouts and stir-fry for an additional minute.
- Serve: Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Serve hot, garnished with extra green onions if desired.
