Orange Beef

Tonight I cooked again. The recipe for this week was orange beef, and it turned out fantastically. But the sauce doesn't really thicken up, so I might use some corn starch next time I make it. I also could not find snap peas at the store, so I had to substitute regular peas instead.





prep time:25 min
start to finish:25 min
makes:2 servings
1/2lb beef boneless sirloin, cut into thin strips
1cup reduced-sodium beef broth
2tablespoons teriyaki stir-fry sauce
1tablespoon orange marmalade
Dash of ground red pepper (cayenne)
1box (9 oz) Green Giant® frozen sugar snap peas
3/4cup uncooked fine egg noodles (1 1/2 oz)
1.Heat 10-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook beef in skillet 2 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until no longer pink. Remove beef from skillet; keep warm.
2.Add broth, stir-fry sauce, marmalade and red pepper to skillet. Heat to boiling. Stir in pea pods and noodles; reduce heat to medium. Cover; cook about 5 minutes or until noodles are tender.
3.Stir in beef. Cook uncovered 2 to 3 minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened.

Looks yummy but it's weird to call something "orange chicken" that doesn't actually have chicken in it!
