Beef Broccoli Lo Mein With Flank Steak Recipe 465

Steps:

• Cook noodles in a large pot of boiling, salted water until tender, about 4 minutes, or according to package instructions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Meanwhile, stir together the garlic, soy sauce and brown sugar, and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large wok or skillet until hot and shimmering. Add the beef, ginger, black pepper and red-pepper flakes, and cook until crisp on the outside but still pink inside, 2 minutes. Season with salt, and move to a plate.
• Add remaining oil to the wok and heat until shimmering. Add the broccoli and cook, tossing until crisp-tender, 2 minutes. Add 1/4 cup water and steam the broccoli until bright green and some of the liquid has evaporated, 2 minute more. Add the noodles, beef, ginger, carrots and soy sauce mixture to the pan, and toss over medium heat until coated and thickened a little, about 1 to 2 minutes. Salt to taste. Sprinkle with scallions, and drizzle with sesame oil, if using. Toss to coat and serve warm, with lime.

Steps:

• In small bowl, whisk broth, soy sauce, ketchup, vinegar, cornstarch and red pepper flakes. Set aside. Bring large pot of water to boil. Lightly salt and add broccoli. Bring back to boil and cook for 3 minutes. Scoop out broccoli with slotted spoon and reserve. In same pot, cook pasta for 6 minutes. Drain and set aside. In large skillet, heat fat over medium high heat. Add steak and pepper and stir fry for 3 minutes. Stir in sauce and simmer for 1 minute until thickened. Add broccoli and water chestnuts. Cook 2 minutes. Toss with pasta and serve immediately. Cook's Note: I made this again with some sirloin steak that was leftover from grilling. I sliced it very thin and added it in at the end with the broccoli and water chestnuts. I also used an extra bell pepper, the white parts of some green onions I had leftover and some bok choy. I sautéed all those items with the peppers. Lastly, I chopped up the thick broccoli stems in sticks and coins and put them in the boiling water first and cooked for 4 minutes before adding the florets. They were tender and delicious in the stir fry, adding some extra nutrition and fiber.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook beef, onion and garlic over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add bean sprouts, mushrooms and water chestnuts. Cook and stir for 3-5 minutes. Stir in the vermicelli, broccoli, soy sauce, oyster sauce if desired and ginger; toss to coat. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until heated through.

Steps:

• Add in the broccoli and onion slices; saute for 3 minutes.
• Add in steak slices; saute for about 4-5 minutes or until cooked.
