Method
Preparation
- Crush peppercorns in a mortar and pestle until cracked but not finely milled, or seal them in a small re-sealable bag and crush them with a skillet or meat mallet.
- Spread the steak on a plate. Sprinkle the crushed pepper and kosher salt evenly over the steak to enhance flavor.
Cooking
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the steak in a single layer and sear, allowing it to brown on the bottom for about 1 minute. Stir-fry for another minute until no longer pink. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
- Return the skillet to medium-high heat, adding the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Add sliced bell peppers, green onions, ginger, and garlic. Stir often for 1 to 2 minutes until fragrant but not burnt.
- In a measuring cup, stir together the beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and cornstarch until combined.
- Pour the broth mixture into the skillet with the cooked vegetables. Stir well, cover, and cook for about 2 minutes until peppers soften.
- Add the seared steak back into the skillet, bringing the mixture to a simmer. Stir constantly until everything is heated through. Remove from heat and serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley if desired.
