# Steps to follow:

01 - Combine sliced flank steak with 1 tablespoon cornstarch and 1 tablespoon soy sauce in a bowl. Mix thoroughly and set aside.
02 - In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, honey, mirin, sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Simmer over medium heat. Add the cornstarch slurry and stir continuously until the sauce thickens, about 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from heat.
03 - Cook noodles following package instructions. Drain well and set aside.
04 - Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat with a small amount of oil. Stir-fry the marinated beef in batches until browned and just cooked through, about 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Remove and set aside.
05 - Using the same wok, add oil if necessary. Stir-fry red bell pepper, sugar snap peas, and julienned carrots for 2 to 3 minutes until crisp-tender.
06 - Return the cooked beef to the wok. Pour in the teriyaki sauce and add the cooked noodles. Toss over medium heat until everything is heated through and well combined.
07 - Divide the noodle bowl into four portions. Garnish each with toasted sesame seeds and additional sliced green onions.
