1
Marinate the sliced flank steak in a mixture of 1 tablespoon soy sauce, sherry, cornstarch, salt, and ground black pepper. Set the bowl aside for 15 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, heat oven to 425°F. Spread bell pepper slices in an even layer on a greased baking sheet, and roast in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until they start to brown.
3
While the peppers are roasting, heat 3 tablespoons of canola oil in a wok on medium heat. The oil is heated sufficiently when it begins to shimmer.
4
Add marinated beef to the wok, stirring gently so it doesn't stick together. Cook for about 2-3 minutes.
5
Transfer the cooked beef to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain excess oil.
6
Add a tablespoon of canola oil to the same wok, raise heat to high, and allow it to heat till it slightly smokes.
7
Add the garlic, ginger, Thai peppers, remaining soy sauce, and sesame oil. Stir continuously until the mixture becomes fragrant.
8
Mix the cooked beef back into the fragrant seasoning mixture in the wok.
9
Remove the roasted bell peppers from the oven, and add them to the wok, mixing well.
10
Remove the wok from heat. Serve the beef stir-fry hot, garnished with thinly-sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds.
