1
Trim the New York strip steaks, removing excess fat if desired, and slice very thinly. Heat avocado oil in a pan to 365–400°F.
2
Season the beef slices with salt and pepper. Sauté them in the hot oil, achieving a nice golden-brown Maillard reaction, then push to the side of the pan.
3
Cut onions into medium pieces by halving them and slicing against the grain. Add olive oil to the pan and sauté the onions with salt and pepper, allowing them to caramelize over medium heat.
4
Prepare the other vegetables: cut bell pepper into julienne and halve the pieces; cut zucchini into small chunks. Once the onions begin to caramelize, add shallots, bell pepper, zucchini, the white parts of green onion, and fresh thyme to the pan. Maintain adequate heat.
5
Cover the pan if necessary and let the vegetables cook for about 5 minutes until the zucchini is tender. Monitor the moisture level.
6
Add minced garlic (about 1 tablespoon) and the green parts of the green onions. Season with Worcestershire sauce and ensure the heat is adequate.
7
Pour beef stock (about 8 ounces) into the pan and stir to combine all ingredients. Adjust the liquid amount to your preference.
8
Mix cornstarch with water to form a light slurry. Slowly pour this mixture into the pan while stirring, until the sauce reaches your desired consistency.
9
Return the cooked beef to the pan and mix everything together. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and seasonings as needed.
10
Serve the stir fry on a plate, accompanied by rice or mashed potatoes. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
