Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons avocado oil
  • 1  lb sirloin steak, thinly sliced or flank or skirt steak
  • 1 green bell pepper sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 3 tablespoons tamari or gf soy sauce or coconut aminos
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • juice of ½ a lime
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Slice the steak thinly against the grain. Pat dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
  • Heat avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add beef and cook in a single layer, searing 3-4 minutes per side until browned. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
  • In the same pan, add peppers and sauté 3–4 minutes until tender-crisp. Return the strips of beef to the skillet. Stir in minced garlic and tamari. Cook 2-3 more minutes until everything is coated and the internal temperature fo the steak has reached 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium or 155 degrees Fahrenheit for well done.
  • Season with salt and black pepper. Enjoy over steamed rice, quinoa, cauliflower rice, or gluten‑free noodles.

Notes

Add extra veggies like onion, snap peas, or mushrooms.
To meal‑prep, marinate beef ahead of time in tamari and garlic, refrigerate, and stir fry when ready.
