Prep: 12 min
Cook: 12 min

If you're looking for a quick change from rice, try serving this stir-fry with soba noodles, a Japanese favorite. Made from buckwheat flour, they have a hearty nutty flavor.


   2 teaspoons soy sauce
   2 teaspoons cornstarch
   1 to 2 teaspoons Chinese chili sauce
   1 teaspoon and 1 tablespoon sesame oil
   1/2 pound beef flank steaks, cut across grain into 1/8 inch strips
   1 medium summer squash, cut into 1/4 inch slices (1 1/2 cups)
   1/2 cup chicken broth
   1/3 pound frozen chinese pea pods, cut diagonally into pieces (1 cup)
   2 cups hot cooked rice or soba noodles


1. Mix soy sauce, cornstarch and chili sauce; reserve.
2. Heat wok or 10-inch nonstick skillet until 1 to 2 drops water bubble and skitter when sprinkled in wok. Add 1 teaspoon oil and rotate wok to coat bottom and side. Add beef. Stir-fry 2 to 3 minutes or until beef is
brown; remove from wok.
3. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil and rotate wok to coat side. Add squash. Stir-fry 1 minute. Add broth; cover and reduce heat to low. Cook 3 minutes or until squash is tender.
4. Stir in cornstarch mixture, pea pods and beef. Stir-fry over high heat 2 minutes or until pea pods are crisp-tender. Serve over rice.
