Slice the beef thinly against the grain and marinate with soy sauce, cornstarch, and black pepper for 15 minutes.

Prepare the vegetables by cutting broccoli into florets, slicing carrots and bell pepper, and chopping green onions.

Heat vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over high heat until shimmering.

Add the marinated beef to the pan and stir-fry until browned, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove the beef from the pan and set aside, keeping warm.

In the same pan, add ginger and garlic, stir-frying until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Add the broccoli, carrots, and bell pepper; stir-fry for 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp.

Return the beef to the pan and add the stir-fry noodles, tossing to combine.

Pour in soy sauce and sesame oil, mixing well to coat all ingredients evenly.

Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until everything is heated through.

Adjust seasoning with red pepper flakes and additional black pepper to taste.

Garnish with chopped green onions before serving.
