Ingredients:

  • 3 to 3 1/2 lbs thick cut top sirloin steaks, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (plus additional as needed)
  • 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
  • 1 tbsp light brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 1 tsp toasted sesame oil (or regular sesame oil)
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 1 large green bell pepper, seeded and thinly sliced (or a poblano pepper)
  • 1 large onion, sliced into 1/4-inch wedges

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Steak: In a large bowl, toss the steak bites with the cornstarch, garlic powder, garlic salt, and red pepper flakes until well coated.
  2. Make the Teriyaki Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the teriyaki sauce, brown sugar, and sesame oil. Set aside for later use.
  3. Sear the Steak Bites: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak bites in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. Cook the steak for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until it develops a rich brown crust and reaches your preferred doneness. Once cooked, transfer the steak bites from the skillet and set them aside.
  4. Cook the Vegetables: Add a bit more olive oil to the skillet if needed. Add the sliced green bell pepper (or poblano) and onion. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. Combine and Glaze: Return the steak bites to the skillet, along with the prepared teriyaki sauce. Toss everything together until the steak and vegetables are evenly coated with the sauce.
  6. Serve: Transfer the teriyaki steak bites and vegetables to a serving platter. Serve hot, garnished with extra red pepper flakes or sesame seeds if desired. Pair with rice or noodles for a complete meal.
