Preparation Process:

1. Marinate the Steak: In a large bowl, combine soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger, garlic, red pepper flakes, and black pepper. Add the thinly sliced ribeye steak and toss to coat. Marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, in the refrigerator.
2. Sauté the Vegetables: Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil and 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add the red and green bell peppers, onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender-crisp, about 5 minutes.
3. Cook the Steak: Remove the marinated steak from the marinade and discard the marinade. Add the steak to the wok with the vegetables and stir-fry until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Prepare the Sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together vegetable broth, honey, cornstarch, and water. Pour the mixture over the steak and vegetables in the wok. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
5. Serve: Remove the wok from heat and stir in the green onions and sesame seeds. Serve the sizzling dish immediately, garnished with additional sesame seeds and fresh herbs, if desired.
