ingredients

1 red bell pepper
1 lb top sirloin steak, fat trimmed
¹⁄₂ teaspoon olive oil
¹⁄₃ cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
¹⁄₂ teaspoon red chili pepper flakes
¹⁄₄ cup minced fresh cilantro

directions

Rinse, stem and seed bell pepper; trim and discard white veins.
Cut pepper into strips about 1/4 inch wide and 2 inches long.
Rinse beef and pat dry.
Cut across the grain into 1/16 to 1/8-inch thick slices, then cut slices into bite-size pieces.
Pour oil into a large nonstick frypan or wok over high heat.
When oil is hot, add bell pepper and stir just until tender-crisp to bite, about 3 minutes.
Pour from pan into a bowl.
Add beef to pan over high heat and stir just until no longer pink, about 2 minutes.
With a slotted spoon, transfer meat to bowl with pepper.
To meat juices in pan, add lime juice, honey, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, ginger, and chili flakes.
Boil over high heat, stirring often, until mixture is reduced to about 1/3 cup, 5 to 6 minutes.
Pour beef and bell pepper back into pan and stir until hot, about 30 seconds.
Spoon stir-fry onto a serving platter or individual plates and sprinkle with cilantro.

I really enjoyed this dish. I wish I could give this 4.5 stars. DH rated it 3 I rated it 5. I was thinking that the ginger would overpower this dish. But...DH said "what is that tart taste?" (It was the lime juice!!) Here I was wondering where that wonderful tangy flavor was coming from. (yes, I'm the one that made the dish!)This dish woke up some taste buds that have been dormant for awhile. I would make this again in a heart beat, but DH would have to be GONE!...(no! not like that..maybe hunting)Thanks, Sharlene~W for posting
