List of Ingredients
4 t. cornstarch
2 t. soy sauce
3/4 lb. beef tri-tip, thinly sliced across the grain
1/4 c. fresh orange juice
2 T. oyster sauce
1 T. honey
1 T. sesame seeds
2 T. vegetable oil
1 t. minced ginger
2 oranges, peeled and segmented
1/2 c. pineapple chunks
Recipe
To make the marinade, combine 2 t. cornstarch and soy sauce in a bowl and mix well. Add the beef and stir to coat evenly. Let stand for 10 minutes.
To make the sauce, combine the orange juice, oyster sauce, honey and remaining 2 t. cornstarch in a small bowl. Stir until the honey dissolves. Set aside.
In a small, dry frying pan, toast the sesame seeds over medium heat, shaking the pan frequently, until lightly colored, 3-4 minutes. Immediately pour onto a plate to cool.
Place a large skillet or wok over high heat until hot. Add the oil, swirling to coat the sides. Add the ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Add the beef and stir-fry until caramelized on the edges and still slightly pink in the center, 2-3 minutes. Add the sauce and cook, stirring, until the sauce boils and thickens slightly, about 20 seconds. Stir in the orange segments and pineapple chunks and cook for 30 seconds to heat through. Transfer to a serving plate, sprinkle with the sesame seeds and serve. Makes 3 servings.
