Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup (75 mL) Ontario Honey
  • 1/4 cup (50 mL) sodium-reduced soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp (25 mL) unseasoned rice or apple cider vinegar
  • 2 tbsp (25 mL) cornstarch
  • 1/4 tsp (1 mL) crushed red pepper flakes
  • 1 lb (500 g) boneless Ontario Beef Sirloin Grilling Steak
  • 2 tbsp (25 mL) vegetable oil
  • 3 cloves Ontario Garlic, minced

Instructions

In liquid measuring cup, stir together honey, soy sauce, vinegar, 4 tsp (20 mL) of the cornstarch and red pepper flakes. Set aside.

Cut beef across the grain into thin strips. Toss with remaining 2 tsp (10 mL) cornstarch. In large nonstick skillet, heat half of the oil over high heat; stir-fry beef until browned but still pink in the centre, about 3 minutes. Transfer to bowl.

Pour in honey mixture; stir-fry until thickened, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in beef and any juices; stir-fry for 1 minute or until heated through. Stir in green onions. Serve over noodles.
