Ingredients

Sauce:

¼ cup rice vinegar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1 tablespoon chile-garlic sauce (such as Sriracha)
1 teaspoon sesame oil
¼ cup cold water
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Stir-Fry:

2 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
¾ pound beef flank steak, thinly sliced
2 carrots, cut into strips
1 green bell pepper, cut into strips
1 cup mushrooms, sliced
1 cup broccoli florets
1 bunch green onions, sliced
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced

Directions

Make sauce: Whisk together vinegar, soy sauce, peanut butter, peanut oil, chile sauce, and sesame oil in a medium bowl until smooth; set aside. Whisk together cold water and cornstarch in a small bowl until cornstarch is dissolved; set aside.
Prepare stir-fry: Heat 1 tablespoon peanut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until smoking. Cook and stir beef in hot oil until browned, about 3 minutes. Remove beef with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
Add remaining 1 tablespoon peanut oil to drippings in the skillet and heat until near smoking. Cook and stir carrots, bell pepper, mushrooms, broccoli, green onions, ginger, and garlic in hot oil-drippings until vegetables are tender, about 4 minutes.
Return beef to the skillet and clear a space in the center. Reduce heat to medium-low. Pour vinegar mixture and cornstarch mixture into the cleared space; stir together for a few seconds, then toss with vegetables and beef. Cover and cook until sauce thickens and coats beef-vegetable mixture, about 5 minutes.
