Feel free to swap out veggies for whatever you have on hand. My mom always taught me the magic of using what you’ve got.
Instructions
Let’s get cooking! This is where the magic happens:
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef strips and season with salt and pepper. Cook until browned, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the beef from the pan and set it aside. In the same pan, add the sliced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3 minutes.
- Add the red bell pepper and broccoli florets to the pan. Stir and cook for another 4 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
- Return the beef to the pan. Pour in the beef broth, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir everything together, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan.
- Let the mixture simmer for about 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. If you like a bit of heat, sprinkle in the chili flakes.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve hot and enjoy the blend of flavors that remind me of those bustling family dinners in our small apartment.
