Here’s how to make it:
Thinly slice the beef and place it in a bowl.

Heat 1 tsp. of coconut oil in a pan over high heat.
Add the marinated beef and sear for about 20 seconds, then stir-fry for another 2 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tsp. of coconut oil to the same pan.
Toss in the sliced onion and red pepper, cooking for about 4-5 minutes until they are slightly softened.
Return the beef to the pan, add the prepared sauce and red pepper flakes if using.
Stir-fry the mixture for about 30-60 seconds on medium heat until the sauce thickens slightly.
Serve the pepper steak hot, ideally with a side of rice (note: nutritional info does not include rice).
