ingredients

3 scallions, sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, peeled and minced
1 tablespoon orange zest, grated
³⁄₄ lb boneless sirloin steak, trimmed and cut into matchstick-thin strips
8 baby carrots, cut into quarters
¹⁄₃ lb sugar snap peas or 1/3 lb snow peas
2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons orange juice
1 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water, cold

directions

Spray a large nonstick wok or skillet with nonstick spray and set over high heat. When a drop of water sizzles on it, add the scallions, garlic, ginger and orange zest. Stir-fry until the scallions soften, about 1 minute.
Add the beef and stir-fry until browned, about 3 minutes.
Add the sugar snap peas and baby carrots; stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
Stir in the soy sauce and orange juice; bring to a simmer and cook 20 seconds.
Meanwhile, mix the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl until smooth.
Add the cornstarch mixture to the wok and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thickened, 30 seconds.

Yum, a lot of great flavor for just a little work not to mention that I'm wild about the low calorie load. I didn't change anything, just followed the recipe and was very happy at dinner time.

Wonderful, used peppers in place of peas - great sauce!

This was so good...very easy to prepare and the flavor was spot on. Made as posted and served it over white rice for a very flavorful dish. I did slice the baby carrots instead of quartering them. Thanks for posting. :)
