- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1-2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
- 1 small green bell pepper chopped
- 1 small red bell pepper chopped
- 1/2 cup thinly sliced onion
- 3/4 teaspoon black pepper

For the marinade
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Maggi seasoning sauce

- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Chinese rice wine
- 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions
- Combine the marinade ingredients in a medium bowl. Add the sliced beef and let stand at room temperature for 15-20 minutes.

- Add the garlic and ginger to the wok and cook until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the peppers, onion and black pepper and cook until peppers are just crisp-tender. Season with salt, to taste.
- Return the beef to the wok and cook until the beef is cooked through, about 1-2 more minutes. Serve over hot cooked rice with chopped green onions for garnish, if desired.
