How to Make Beef Stir Fry With Asparagus Red Bell Peppers And Caramelized O

1. In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, brown sugar, ginger, and garlic. Add the flank steak and marinate for at least 20 minutes.
2. While the beef marinates, thinly slice the onion and cut the bell pepper into 1-inch slices. Trim and diagonally slice the asparagus into 2-inch pieces.
3. Blanch asparagus: Bring a small pot of salted water to a boil. Add asparagus and cook for 2-3 minutes until bright green and slightly tender. Immediately transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Drain and set aside.
4. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until browned on the outside but still slightly pink inside (about 2-3 minutes per batch). Remove from wok and set aside.
5. Add another tablespoon of oil to the wok. Add the asparagus and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp. Remove and set aside.
6. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the wok. Add the onions and stir-fry for 7-10 minutes until golden brown and caramelized.
7. Add the bell peppers and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until softened.
8. Stir in brown sugar and rice vinegar; cook for a few minutes until the onions are well caramelized.
9. Add the beef broth and simmer for 2 minutes to reduce the liquid slightly.
10. In a small bowl, whisk together cornstarch and 3 tablespoons of water until smooth. Slowly pour into the wok, whisking constantly until the sauce thickens.
11. Return the cooked beef and asparagus to the wok. Stir to combine and heat through (about 1 minute).
12. Serve immediately over cooked white or brown rice.
