Orange Sesame Beef Stir-Fry
- 3/4 cup orange juice
- 3 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons ginger, ground
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/8 teaspoon red pepper, ground
- 1 lb boneless beef top sirloin steak, cut into thin strips
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 5 cups cut-up vegetables, such as broccoli florets, sliced onion, sugar snap peas and red bell pepper strips
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted (see instruction #2)
- Place beef in a ziploc bag. Combine orange juice, soy sauce, ginger, garlic powder and cayenne pepper. Reserve half of the marinade; pour remaining marinade over steak. Marinate in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- While meat is marinating, toast sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until seeds are golden-brown and fragrant. Pour seeds out of the hot pan to avoid overtoasting. Set aside.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add beef and 3 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds; saute about 3 minutes or until beef is browned. Remove from skillet; keep warm. Add vegetables to skillet; cook, stirring, until crisp-tender, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- Combine reserved marinade with cornstarch and sugar. Add to skillet; bring to a boil. Return beef to skillet. Stir and heat through. Top with remaining 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds. Serve over rice, if desired.
