Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds flank steak, cut in 1-inch strips
- Salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup cornstarch
- Vegetable oil, for frying
- 1 package thin rice noodles
- Frisee lettuce, to serve
- 1 tablespoon canola oil
- 1 teaspoon minced garlic
- 1/2 cup orange marmalade
- 1 cup low-sodium beef broth
- 1 teaspoon low-sodium soy sauce
- 10 small dried Thai chiles
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
Instructions
- Season flank steak strips with salt and pepper, then toss with cornstarch. Shake off excess.
- Fill a large frying pan with enough oil to cover the bottom by 1/4 to 1/2-inch. Heat the oil to 365 degrees F. First add noodles to oil and let cook for 3 to 4 minutes. Take out noodles and then, working in batches, fry the steak. Do not crowd pan. Drain on paper towels. Set aside.
- For the sauce: Heat the oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat and cook the garlic until fragrant; do not let the garlic brown. Add orange marmalade, 1/2 cup beef broth, soy sauce, and chiles. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes. In a small bowl, stir cornstarch into remaining 1/2 cup beef broth. Stir cornstarch mixture into simmering sauce. Return to a simmer for 3 to 4 minutes until sauce thickens.
- Make a bed of the frisee lettuce on a platter. Put the crispy noodles on top and then the beef. Pour sauce over beef and serve.

Reviews
Not the best, but in It’s defense I tried it inthe air fryer… definitely needs more orange flavor; but even if I “crisped” the beef and did the recipe as written I don’t think it would’ve cut the mustard… not my favorite; will find a different recipe
Needs a bit more orange flavor. But it was tasty and as an added bonus, the whole family ate it!
