Directions
-
Trim excess fat from the flank steak and slice it into thin strips against the grain.
-
In a shallow bowl, combine soy sauce, water, honey, minced garlic, and ginger.
-
Add the beef strips to the marinade, turning to coat evenly.
-
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to allow the beef to absorb the flavors.
-
Heat oil in a wok or large stir-fry pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
-
Remove beef from marinade, reserving the liquid, and add the beef to the hot pan. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned, then remove beef and set aside.
-
In the same pan, add chopped onion, broccoli, and green pepper. Stir-fry for 3 to 5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
-
Return the beef to the pan, pour in the reserved marinade, and add chopped tomato.
-
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and vegetables.
-
Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.

Note
For best results, slice the beef against the grain to ensure maximum tenderness.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix 1 teaspoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water and add it to the pan during the last minute of cooking.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a skillet to maintain texture.
You can substitute broccoli with snap peas, bok choy, or bell peppers for variation.
