Directions

  1. 1

    For the steak: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with the salt and pepper. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil to the skillet. Sear the steak pieces until brown on the surface and medium-rate, about 45 seconds per side. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the skillet, then add the mushrooms, broccolini and red and yellow bell peppers. Cook until the vegetables soften slightly, a couple of minutes. Add the ginger, scallion whites and garlic and cook until very fragrant, 45 seconds to a minute.

  3. 3

    For the sauce: Mix the orange juice, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, honey, cornstarch, red pepper flakes and sesame oil in a small bowl. Add to the skillet and allow it to boil and thicken, tossing everything together and coating it in the sauce, 1 to 2 minutes. Return the steak to the sauce and stir to coat in the sauce also.
