- 1 medium sweet onion, sliced
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
- ½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper

- 1 tsp fresh ginger (optional)
Instructions
- Slice the beef against the grain into thin strips. Chop the bell peppers and onion into bite-sized pieces.
- In a bowl, mix soy sauce, garlic, black pepper, and cornstarch to create a marinade. Add the beef and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
