Ingredients

  • 3/4 pound beef boneless sirloin steak
  • 1/2 cup Progresso™ beef flavored broth (from 32-ounce carton)
  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon white vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons packed brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons finely chopped gingerroot or 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

  • 1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained

Make With
Progresso Broth

Steps

  • 1
    Trim excess fat from beef. Cut beef with grain into 2-inch strips; cut strips across grain into 1/8-inch slices. (Beef is easier to cut if partially frozen.)
  • 2
    Mix broth, cornstarch, fish sauce, vinegar and brown sugar.
  • 3
    Spray nonstick wok or 10-inch skillet with cooking spray. Heat over high heat. Add beef, gingerroot and garlic; stir-fry about 3 minutes or until beef is brown. Remove beef from wok with slotted spoon.
  • 4
    Add carrots and onions; stir-fry about 5 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Stir in beef, water chestnuts and lemon peel; heat to boiling. Stir in broth mixture. Cook and stir about 1 minute or until heated through.
  • 5
    Serve beef mixture over rice.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Fish sauce gives this stir-fry its distinctive Thai flavor. Look for it in an Asian food store or in the Asian-foods section of your supermarket.
  • tip 2
    Don’t want to buy fish sauce? Go ahead and use an equal amount of soy sauce instead. The authentic Thai flavor won’t be there, but the dish will still be yummy.
