Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil divided
  • 1 pound flank steak thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 4 cups mixed vegetables

Sauce

  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • ⅓ cup orange juice
  • ⅓ cup water
  • ¼ cup low sodium soy sauce

Instructions

  • Season steak with salt & pepper. Toss with cornstarch and set aside while you prepare the vegetables.
  • Place 1 tablespoon of oil in a pan or wok. Cook the beef in 2 small batches over medium high until browned, about 2-3 minutes (beef does not need to be cooked through). Remove from pan and set aside.

  • Combine sauce ingredients except corn starch in a bowl and stir well.
  • Turn the heat up to medium-high and add the sauce. Bring to a simmer. Combine cornstarch with 3 tablespoons water (or broth) and add it the sauce a little bit at a time while whisking to reach desired consistency. Let simmer 2 minutes. Add vegetables, beef (and any juices) to the pan and cook until heated through.
  • Serve with noodles or over rice.
