In a bowl, combine the steak, corn starch, black pepper, 2-1/2 tb soy sauce, and 2 tb oil. Toss to mix, cover and marinate at room temperature for up to 30 minutes, or in the refrigerator for up to 12 hours. Stir-fry the beef: Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high until a splash of water dropped into the pan evaporates quickly. Add enough oil to generously coat the pan, then add the beef in a single layer. Cook without flipping until the meat is browned around the edges, 2-1/2 to 3 minutes, then stir constantly until browned all over, about 30 more seconds. Transfer to a plate. Add the peppers, onion, garlic, and ginger to the same wok, still over medium-high heat. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften, 1 to 1-1/2 minutes. Add the meat back to the pan, along with the Shaoxing wine, honey, and the remaining 1 tb soy sauce. Cook, stirring constantly and scraping up any stuck-on bits, until the liquid reduces greatly and slicks the vegetables and beef, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt, pepper, or soy sauce as desired. Serve immediately with rice. Recipe by Eric Kim Recipe FROM: https://cooking.nytimes.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM
