113. Beef and Orange Stir-fry

This was really good. Dave and I thought that it could use some spice but I did not want to add spice to it with the kids eating. Well, the kids was not impressed with this meal. As I type, Dave is cleaning the dishes while the kids are still at the table.

*3 oranges
*2 garlic cloves, minced
*2 TBSP soy sauce
*1 1/2 lb sirloin, sliced in 1/2 inch pieces
*1 TBSP corn starch
*1-2 TBSP vegetable oil
*6 scallions, green part only, cut into i-inch pieces
*white rice

In a small bowl finely grate the zest and squeeze juice from one orange
Mix in the garlic and soy sauce
Peel and slice the remaining oranges (make sure to get the seeds out)
In a medium bowl toss the meat with the corn starch to coat
Heat oil in a non-stick skillet over high heat
Add the meat and cook until brown on both sides, (3-5 minutes) You may need to work in batches to not crowd the meat.
Transfer to plate
Pour the juice mixture into the skillet and cook until syrupy about 1 minute
Return beef to skillet with orange and scallions
