👨‍🍳Instructions

1

Bring a pot of water to boil and cook the ramen noodles until just tender. Drain and set aside.

💡Tip: Do not overcook; ramen should stay slightly firm.

2

Season the steak with salt and black pepper, then sear in a hot skillet with oil for 3-4 minutes per side until a deep crust forms.

💡Tip: Let the steak rest after cooking to keep it juicy.

In the same pan, sauté garlic, mushrooms, and sliced bell peppers until softened and slightly charred.

💡Tip: High heat helps create that smoky flavor.

💡Tip: Slice against the grain for tenderness.

8

Finish with sesame oil, green onions, sesame seeds, and chili flakes before serving hot.

💡Tip: Serve immediately for best flavor and texture.
