Ingredients

2 (4 ounce) boneless beef sirloin steaks
2 medium oranges
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon ground ginger
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
7 tablespoons canola oil, divided
1 medium green bell pepper, sliced
1 medium yellow bell pepper, sliced
1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
1 medium onion, sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
4 cups cooked brown rice, warmed

Steps:

Slice steaks very thin. Zest one orange; juice both oranges.
Mix orange juice, orange zest, honey, soy sauce, ginger, Worcestershire, black pepper, red pepper flakes, cinnamon, and cloves for marinade together in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add steak slices, cover with plastic wrap, and marinate in the refrigerator for 4 hours.
Remove steak from the marinade and shake off excess. Reserve 1/2 cup of marinade; set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons canola oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add 1/3 of the steak slices and cook until browned, 3 to 5 minutes, being careful as this will cook quickly. Remove to a heat-proof dish or bowl. Continue cooking steak in the same fashion, using 2 tablespoons oil for every batch.
Heat remaining tablespoon oil in the pan over medium-high heat. Add bell peppers, onion, and garlic. Turn heat to medium-low and add steak back into the pan. Cook and stir for 3 minutes. Add 1/2 cup of reserved marinade and allow to thicken and coat veggies and steak. Serve right away with brown rice.
