1 lb (450 g) beef steak, thinly sliced
1 red bell pepper, sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 hot chili pepper, thinly sliced
2 scallions, chopped
2 tbsp (30 ml) soy sauce
1 tbsp (15 ml) sesame oil
2 avocados, sliced
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tbsp (15 ml) vegetable oil
Instructions
1. **Prepare the Ingredients:** Slice the beef steak thinly across the grain. Prepare all vegetables by slicing and chopping as needed.
2. **Cook the Beef:** Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the sliced beef and cook, stirring frequently, until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
3. **Stir-Fry the Vegetables:** In the same skillet, add the bell peppers, scallions, and chili pepper. Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until the peppers are slightly tender but still crisp.
4. **Combine and Serve:** Return the beef to the skillet, add the soy sauce and sesame oil, and toss to combine everything well. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat, gently fold in the sliced avocados, and serve immediately.
