ingredients
- 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)
directions
- 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.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
