Steps:

• Method 1 While you are chopping the ingredients in preparation, bring a small saucepan of water to boil. Parboil the asparagus pieces for 2 minutes, drain, rinse in cold water, drain, and set aside. If you are planning to serve this dish with rice, in a separate pan, prepare 2 cups of white rice, following the instructions on the rice package. 2 Prepare the All Purpose Stir Fry Sauce by combining the ingredients in a small dish, and set aside. 3 Stir-fry the asparagus in a wok (or a thick-bottomed pan with at least 2" sides that can take high heat) in 1 Tbsp of oil, on high heat, for about 2 minutes until lightly browned. Remove asparagus from pan and set aside. 4 Add another 1 Tbsp of oil to the pan and stir fry the beef strips, in 2 batches, for 2-3 minutes until browned but still pink inside. Return the first batch of beef to the pan and add the bell pepper. Stir and toss over high heat until just beginning to wilt, 1-2 minutes. 5 Quickly stir the cornstarch liquid and add it to the pan along with the stir fry sauce. Cook until sauce thickens, 1-2 minutes. Return the asparagus to the pan, toss to evenly coat and serve with steamed white rice (unless you are going low-carb, in which case, leave out the rice). Serves 4.

• 2. Lay peppers skin side up on a parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 30-35 minutes, or until skin begins to blacken.
• 3. Remove peppers from oven and immediately place and seal in a paper beg for 15 minutes. The paper bag will steam and release the skins from the peppers. After 15 minutes just remove the peppers from the bag and peel the skin right off!

As soon as butter has melted, add the steaks to the skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side. Note: using a strong pair of tongs, make sure that the sides of the steak are seared as well by rotating the steak around all its edges. Remember, we are keeping the steaks very, very rare as we will be finishing them in the oven.
• 6. As soon as you have a good sear, remove steak to a cutting board and let rest for 10-15 minutes; this will allow the steak to re-absorb all the juices and keep them super tender.
• 7. When steaks have fully rested, cut them into1/2 thick strips; the steak will be very rare but that's what we want. Thread strips of steak onto prepared bamboo skewers. Arrange skewers on a parchment lined baking sheet.
• 8. Brush both sides of each skewer liberally with the roasted red bell pepper sauce. Put into 400 degree oven for approximately 8 minutes, flipping skewer halfway through.
