Quick Oregano-Spiced Beef and Vegetable Stir-Fry

1.In a medium bowl, toss the beef cubes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, steak spice blend, dried oregano, and barbecue spice blend until evenly coated. Set aside to marinate while preparing the vegetables (about 10 minutes).

2.Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil.

3.Add the sliced onion and carrots to the hot skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the onions begin to soften and the carrots start to turn bright orange.

4.Add the green beans and sliced bell peppers to the skillet. Continue to stir-fry for another 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp (al dente). If the pan seems too dry, add a splash of water or broth.

5.Push the vegetables to one side of the skillet. Add the seasoned beef cubes to the empty space in the pan, ensuring they are in a single layer if possible. Sear the beef for 2-3 minutes without moving to achieve a nice brown crust.

6.Toss the beef with the vegetables, stirring constantly until the beef is cooked through to your desired doneness (about 2-4 more minutes, depending on thickness).

7.Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or black pepper if necessary. Serve immediately over rice or noodles for a complete, kid-friendly meal.
