- Place the cut meat in a resealable bag, add the soy sauce and rice vinegar, then seal and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
- After 2 hours, make the sauce by whisking together the soy sauces, water, rice vinegar, sugar, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes.

- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 TBSP oil.
- Add half of the coated meat in an even layer and saute for 2 to 3 minutes, flip, and cook 1 to 2 minutes longer.
- Add the meat to a clean plate and add some additional oil to the pan if needed.
- Cook the other half of the meat and remove it from the pan when done.
- Add the sauce, red bell pepper slices, and scallions to the skillet and allow the mixture to briskly simmer for 2 minutes.
