Once your veggies are prepped, the cooking process is pretty simple. We’ll start with the beef! Heat the sesame oil in a high-walled skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once it’s heated, add the beef and saute until the outsides of your beef pieces are browned, or about 2-3 minutes. You don’t want to over cook the beef here, since it’ll be staying in the skillet while we cook our veggies.
Then, add the carrots and saute for another 1-2 minutes. Next, add the broccoli, bell pepper, and mushrooms and continue sauteing for another 1-2 minutes.
Then, push the beef and veggies over to one side of your skillet to create an opening. Add the shrimp to the open area you just created, and saute until cooked through, or about 2-3 minutes per side.
Finally, add the garlic, green onions, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and ground black pepper and mix well. Remove from heat, and serve over noodle nests or rice. Enjoy!
