I’m sure at some point in the nearly nine years I’ve been blogging that I have confessed my unruly obsession with stir fry. You guys, I eat it every day. Often for multiple meals. Always for breakfast.

How to Make 30-Minute Beef Stir Fry Recipe:
Prepare the Easy Stir Fry Sauce.
Heat the avocado oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef in a single layer (if possible) and stir beef until browned, 3 to 4 minutes.
Move the beef to the side of the wok and add the vegetables. Cook and stir vegetables for 2 minutes before stirring the beef into the vegetables to incorporate.
Pour ¼ to ⅓ cup of the stir fry sauce into the wok with the beef and vegetables and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce has thickened and created a sticky coat over everything, about 3 minutes.
Serve stir fry as is in bowls or with choice of steamed rice, quinoa, or vegetable noodles.
Recipe Adaptations:
- Replace the beef with 1 lb boneless skinless chicken breasts, shrimp, or pork.
- Incorporate any of your favorite vegetables.
- Add garlic if you’re obsessed!
- Make it Low-FODMAP by omitting the onion.
- Make it nightshade-free by omitting the bell pepper
