INSTRUCTIONS

1 Combine beef, baking soda, black pepper, ginger, cornstarch, 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of the Brown Gravy Mix in a large bowl. Mix well and set aside to marinade for at least 15 minutes.
2 Heat oil in wok or large skillet on high heat. Sauté minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add beef and cook until almost completely cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes. Add bell peppers and onion. Sauté 2 minutes or until fragrant and slightly translucent. Veggies should still have a bite to them—they should not be too soft. Remove steak, peppers and onions, reserving drippings in the skillet.
3 Add water, remaining Brown Gravy Mix and 2 teaspoons soy sauce to skillet; whisk until well blended. Cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes, until sauce thickens up into a gravy. Return cooked steak and vegetables to pan with the gravy. Toss until everything is evenly coated in the sauce. Serve over steamed rice or enjoy on its own!
