Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb beef thinly sliced
  • 1 lb chicken breast thinly sliced
  • 1 cup bell peppers sliced
  • 1 cup onions sliced
  • 1 cup mushrooms sliced
  • 1 cup zucchini sliced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
  • 1 tbsp sesame oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tbsp ginger grated
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1 tsp chili flakes optional for heat
  • 2 tbsp sesame seeds optional garnish

Equipment

  • Grill or Wok
  • Knife and cutting board
  • Stirring spoon

Method
 

Prepare the Ingredients:
  1. Thinly slice the beef and chicken breast into strips.
  2. Slice the vegetables—bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, and zucchini—into thin pieces for even cooking.
Make the Sauce:
  1. In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, and chili flakes. Stir well to combine.
Heat the Grill or Wok:
  1. Heat a wok or grill to high heat. You want it to be as hot as possible to sear the ingredients quickly.
Cook the Meat:
  1. Add the thinly sliced meat (beef and chicken) to the wok or grill. Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until the meat is seared and cooked through.
Add Vegetables:
  1. Add the vegetables to the grill or wok. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring the vegetables stay crisp and vibrant.
Add the Sauce:
  1. Pour the sauce mixture over the cooked meat and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything with the sauce. Allow it to cook for another minute or so until the sauce has slightly thickened and the flavors are well combined.
Garnish and Serve:
  1. Remove from heat and sprinkle sesame seeds on top if desired. Serve immediately over rice or noodles for a complete meal.

Notes

  • Meat options: You can substitute beef and chicken with pork, shrimp, or tofu for a different variation.
  • Sauce adjustment: Feel free to adjust the sweetness or saltiness of the sauce by adding more sugar or soy sauce to taste.
  • Serving suggestions: Serve with steamed jasmine rice, brown rice, or soba noodles for added texture and flavor. You can also add a side of pickled vegetables or a light salad.
