Ingredients
Sauce
- ½ cup orange juice
- 3 tablespoon tamari sauce or gluten-free soy sauce
- 2 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon ginger minced
- 2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
- 1 garlic clove minced
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon chilli paste sambal oelek or sriracha
Stir Fry
- 2 tablespoon peanut oil
- 8 oz top sirloin steak thinly sliced
- 12 oz asparagus trimmed & sliced in half on the diagonal
- 8 oz cremini mushrooms sliced
- 2 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 large red bell pepper cored, seeded and sliced into ½ inch strips
- ½ cup cherry tomatoes halved
Instructions
Sauce
- Whisk all sauce ingredients in a bowl, or put them in a jar with a lid and shake*
Stir Fry
- Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil, heating until just beginning to smoke
- Add the mushrooms and thyme and stir fry until tender and browned about 2-3 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to a plate.
- Add the remaining tablespoon of oil & heat, spreading around the pan.
- In batches, add the meat, spreading pieces out.
- Sear the meat for 30 seconds, turn and sear 30 seconds more. Transfer to the plate with the mushrooms
- Add asparagus and red pepper to the pan and stir fry 1 minute
- Add 1 tablespoon water to the pan and cook until the water evaporates
- Add the sauce to the pan along with the meat and mushrooms
- Cook, stirring just until the sauce starts to thicken, about 1 minute
- Transfer to a platter, stir in cherry tomatoes and serve immediately
Notes
- This recipe is gluten-free. If gluten is not an issue for you, feel free to use regular soy sauce.
- Shaking the sauce ingredients in a jar is an easy way to dissolve the cornstarch.
- Cremini mushrooms are simply brown mushrooms. Any variety of mushrooms can be used here
- To trim asparagus, gently bend each spear until it snaps. Discard the woody pieces or save them for stock.
- Keep in mind that the sauce will thicken as it cools
