Servings: persons

1 egg white
1 teaspoon low sodium soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon vegetable oil
freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon corn starch
1 pound beef thinly sliced, sirloin, flank are best
2 bell peppers cut into 1-inch pieces, any colors
1 onion small, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 cloves garlic finely minced
1 1/2 tablespoons oyster sauce
vegetable oil for stir frying

1
In a bowl, whisk together the egg white, low sodium soy sauce, vegetable oil, black pepper and corn starch. Add the beef slices and mix very well. Marinate for 10 minutes.
2
Heat a wok or large saute pan over high heat. Swirl in about 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. When very hot, add in the beef slices, spreading it out all over the surface of the pan. Let cook for 30 seconds, undisturbed, to get a nice sear. Flip the slices and cook another 30 seconds. Remove immediately to a clean plate.
3
Turn the heat down to medium-high. If needed, add in just a little more vegetable oil. Add in the bell peppers and the onion and stir-fry for 1 minute. Push the vegetables aside and make a little spot for the garlic. Add in the garlic and give it a few seconds to heat up and become fragrant. Toss garlic in with the vegetables.
4
Add the beef back into the pan. Toss very well. Pour in the oyster sauce and toss again. Season with more black pepper, if desired.
