1. In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, and black pepper. You can also add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, if you’d like.
2. Add the beef strips and toss to coat. Transfer beef to a plate, shaking off excess flour. Discard the excess flour.
3. Then heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon or two of vegetable oil or other cooking oil with a high smoking point. When the oil is really hot, add your beef strips in a single layer. Now don’t touch those beef strips for at least 2-3 minutes. You want them to get a good sear on the first side.
4. Once that first side is seared well, flip the strips over. Now cook, stirring often, until they reach your desired done-ness. They cook quickly, so another 1-2 minutes is all that is needed.
5. At this point you can also turn this into a quick beef and gravy dish by slowly adding 2 cups of beef broth while stirring constantly then simmering until slightly thickened.
