Instructions
Cut the steaks into thin strips and place in a bowl. Cut the bell peppers into strips and place in a second bowl.
In a small bowl, combine the seasoning ingredients and mix to combine. In a 2nd bowl combine all of the liquid ingredients except the beef broth.
Season the beef strips with half of the seasoning mix. Mix to combine and set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok or large pan. Bring to medium heat or about 350 degrees. Working in batches, as to not overcrowd the pan, brown the beef strips, then remove to a bowl. The beef just needs to be browned, not cooked through.
Add an additional tablespoon of oil to the pan, then add the bell pepper strips. Sauté the peppers until softened. Add in the minced garlic and cook 1-2 more minutes.
Deglaze the pan with the beef broth and bring to a brief boil. Stir in the remaining liquid ingredients, remaining seasoning, and hot peppers. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce starts to thicken.
Add the beef strips back to the pan, stir to combine, and cook for about 2-3 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your desired doneness. Try not to overcook the steak.
