Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large skillet over high heat until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.

  2. Step 2

    Add beef slices in a single layer. Sear 90 seconds without stirring, then flip and cook 60 seconds more until edges brown. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Step 3

    Add shrimp to the skillet and cook 2 minutes per side until pink and opaque. Transfer to the same plate.

  4. Step 4

    Add bell peppers to the skillet. Stir-fry 3 minutes until just tender, then add garlic and chili peppers. Cook 30 seconds until fragrant.

  5. Step 5

    Pour in soy sauce and lime juice. Return beef and shrimp to the pan and toss until coated and heated through, about 1 minute.

  6. Step 6

    Serve immediately over jasmine rice, garnished with fresh cilantro or scallions if desired.
