### **Step-by-Step Instructions**

#### **1. Cook the Pasta**

Start by boiling salted water and cooking your pasta according to the package directions. Drain and set aside, reserving about ½ cup of pasta water.

#### **2. Sear the Beef**

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced steak and cook until browned on all sides (about 3–4 minutes). Remove from the pan and set aside.

#### **3. Sauté the Vegetables**

In the same pan, add another tablespoon of oil. Toss in the bell peppers, onions, and garlic. Sauté for 5–7 minutes, or until softened and slightly charred for extra flavor.

#### **4. Make the Sauce**

In a small bowl, mix beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, cornstarch, and black pepper until smooth. Pour the mixture into the skillet with the vegetables and stir well.

#### **5. Combine Everything**

Add the cooked beef back into the skillet and simmer for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens. Add the drained pasta to the pan, tossing everything together to coat. If needed, loosen the sauce with a splash of the reserved pasta water.

#### **6. Serve and Garnish**

Serve hot, topped with chopped parsley or a pinch of red pepper flakes if you like a little heat.
