  3. Heat a wok or pan over high heat with oil. Once the oil is hot, add the marinated beef slices and stir-fry quickly until they change color. Remove and set aside. Be careful not to overcook the beef to avoid toughness.

  4. Leave some oil in the pan and add the minced garlic and ginger to fry until fragrant.

  5. Return the cooked beef slices to the pan along with the sliced bell peppers or onions. Stir-fry quickly to combine. Season with salt if needed (omit if soy sauce is already salty enough
