Ingredients:

• 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin, thinly sliced
• 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced
• 1 medium onion, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon ginger, grated
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1/2 cup beef broth
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Cooked rice or noodles, for serving

Instructions:

1. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, mix the beef slices with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
2. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and beef broth. Set aside.
3. Cook the Beef: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
4. Stir Fry Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining vegetable oil and sesame oil. Add the garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the onions and bell peppers, and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.
5. Combine Ingredients: Return the beef to the skillet, and add the pineapple chunks. Pour the prepared sauce over the mixture and stir well to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
6. Season and Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve the stir fry hot over cooked rice or noodles.
