1

Cut the flank steak lengthwise into 1/2-inch strips, and then into 1/4-inch slices against the grain. Combine beef with marinade and set aside for 15 minutes.

2

Cut the noodles into 1/2-inch wide strips if not cut. Quickly rinse under water to separate the noodles.

3

Turn the control lever of the Gourmet d’Expert® Electric Skillet to HIGH, and heat 2 Tbsp. vegetable oil. Add the noodles and cook until they are lightly browned, tossing gently. Remove and set aside.

4

With the control lever at HIGH, add 1 Tbsp. vegetable oil and cook the beef for 2-3 minutes. Do not stir until one side is browned. Add the peppers and cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the oyster sauce and black bean with garlic sauce.

5

Return the noodles to the pan and toss until thoroughly heated and mixed. Serve while hot. Finish with a few drops of sesame oil. Serve while hot.
