    Start by preparing your ingredients. Dice the bell peppers and onion, mince the garlic and ginger, and slice the green onions. This should take about 10 minutes.

    Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Allow the oil to heat for about 1-2 minutes.

    Add the ground beef to the pan and cook for about 5-7 minutes, breaking it up with a spatula, until it’s browned and fully cooked.

    Next, add the diced onion, minced garlic, and ginger to the pan. Stir everything together and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the onions become translucent.

    Add the diced bell peppers and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally until they soften but still retain some crunch.

    Pour in the soy sauce and sprinkle with black pepper. Mix everything well and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
