Tips:

Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak, skirt steak, or tenderloin are all good choices for stir-fries, as they are thin and cook quickly.

Slice the beef against the grain: This will help to tenderize the meat and make it more flavorful.

Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, ginger, and rice wine will help to add flavor and moisture.

Use a hot wok or skillet: This will help to sear the beef and prevent it from sticking.

Cook the beef in small batches: This will help to prevent the beef from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of searing.

Add the vegetables towards the end of cooking: This will help to prevent them from becoming overcooked.

Serve the stir-fry over rice or noodles: This will help to soak up the delicious sauce.

Conclusion:

This beef stir-fry with asparagus, red bell peppers, and caramelized onions is a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. The beef is tender and flavorful, the vegetables are crisp and colorful, and the sauce is rich and savory. This stir-fry is sure to be a hit with the whole family.
