Method
 

Preparation
  1. Toss beef with cornstarch, salt, and pepper to create a light coating.
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until it shimmers.
  3. Add the beef and stir-fry until browned and cooked through, and the internal temperature reaches 160°F.
  4. Remove the beef and set it aside.
  5. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of oil, then add garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Cooking
  1. Add mixed vegetables and stir-fry until tender-crisp, keeping pieces in a single layer as much as the pan allows.
  2. Return the beef to the skillet, add soy sauce and oyster sauce, and toss to combine so the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients.
