How to Make Chinese Orange Beef

  1. In a bowl, toss 1 lb thinly sliced sirloin steak with 2 tablespoons cornstarch until evenly coated.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  3. Stir-fry beef in batches for 2-3 minutes per batch, until browned. Remove and set aside.
  4. Add 2 cloves minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Pour in 1/2 cup fresh orange juice, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon honey, and 1/2 teaspoon grated ginger. Bring to a simmer.
  6. Return the beef to the pan. Add 1/4 cup chopped scallions and stir to combine. Cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
  7. While the beef cooks, prepare noodles according to package directions.
  8. Serve the delicious orange beef over a bed of hot noodles. Garnish with extra scallions, if desired.
