SPICY TANGERINE BEEF

Steps:

• 1. Grate the zest from the tangerines; set aside. Peel the tangerines and separate into sections; reserve the sections. Stir together the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of the water in a cup until smooth; set aside. 2. Spray a nonstick wok or large deep nonstick skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium-high heat. When a drop of water sizzles in it, add half of the beef and stir-fry until browned, about 3 minutes, using a slotted spoon to transfer the beef to a bowl. Repeat with the remaining beef. 3. Add the broccoli and the remaining 2 tablespoons water to the wok; cook, covered, about 2 minutes. Increase the heat to high. Add the scallions, bell pepper, garlic, tangerine zest, soy sauce, and crushed red pepper; stir-fry about 1 minute. Stir the cornstarch mixture and add to the wok; stir-fry until the sauce thickens and bubbles, about 1 minute. Return the beef to the wok along with the tangerines; stir-fry until heated through, about 1 minute longer. TIPS This recipe invites improvising. Thinly sliced and less expensive beef chuck or round, pork tenderloin, shrimp, or firm tofu can stand in for the sirloin steak; yellow peppers can replace red ones; and broccolini, showpeas or asparagus could take the place of the broccoli. Freeze the meat until it just begins to firm up and slicing thinly will be much easier.
