## Instructions

1. Prep all the veggies first: sweet onion (or red/white onion) into large chunks, red bell pepper into bite-sized pieces, green bell pepper into bite-sized pieces.
2. Mince up some garlic, peel and grate some ginger.
3. Cut the rib eye (or New York strip) into 1-inch pieces.
4. Tenderize the steak with a little baking soda.
5. Marinate the steak with dark soy sauce for color, regular soy sauce for seasoning, oyster sauce, and lots of black pepper.
6. Give the marinated steak a good mix and set it aside.
7. Make the sauce by combining water, oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, regular soy sauce, and sugar for balance.
8. Add a little Shaoxing wine for extra flavor, if desired.
9. Give the sauce a good mix and take it to the stove.
10. Add oil to your wok.
11. Add the garlic and ginger to the wok.
12. Add in the marinated beef.
13. Spread the beef out and leave it alone so it can get a nice char on each side.
14. Once the steak is about 80% cooked through, add in all your veggies.
15. Add in all the sauce.
16. Once the sauce gets nice and bubbly, add a cornstarch slurry to make the sauce nice and thick and glossy.
17. Finish it off with a little sesame oil.
18. Give it one last toss.
