Notes

Make sure your steak slices are thin for quick cooking. Don’t overcook the vegetables; they should be tender but still crisp. Adjust the amount of soy sauce and oyster sauce to suit your taste. If you want more color and crunch, add snap peas or carrots. For a spicy kick, include sliced jalapeños.
