Equipment

Ingredients

¼ cup hoisin sauce
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
1 Tablespoon water
2 teaspoon sesame oil
2 garlic cloves minced
¼ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 pound beef round steak thinly sliced
6 ounces whole wheat spaghetti uncooked
4 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 8 ounce can sliced water chestnuts
1 purple onion sliced thick
1 cup snow peas
10 ounces fresh baby spinach
1 red chile seeded and sliced
sliced almonds for garnish optional
sliced green onions for garnish optional

Instructions

In a small bowl, mix the first five ingredients to make the marinade. Remove ¼ cup of the mixed marinade and place in a large bowl, add the sliced beef to the larger bowl and toss to coat. Marinate for 10 minutes.
Cook spaghetti accordingly to package directions, drain.
In a large skillet or wok, add heat vegetable oil and heat. Add the marinaded beef mixture and stir-fry until no longer pink, about 2-3 minutes. (may have to cook in two batches if skillet or wok is not large enough). Remove beef to a plate and cover to keep warm.
Stir-fry water chestnuts, purple onions, and snow peas in oil for 1-2 minute until crisp-tender. Add spinach and marinade mixture, toss to coat and stir-fry until spinach is wilted.
Return beef to skillet, add drained spaghetti and red chile and toss to combine and heat through.
Serve garnished with green onions and/or sliced almonds, optional

Notes

Use a large cutting board and chop all your veggies and leave them on the board. This prevents you from adding to the workload and to prevent all the extra dishes you will have to wash.
