Crispy Orange Beef

A delicious orange beef recipe that is crispy and sweet yet mildly spiced. This beef stir-fry recipe is great served with steamed rice and broccoli.

How to Make It

Directions

  1. Lay beef in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Allow to dry in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

  2. Meanwhile, bring water and rice to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, about 20 minutes.

  3. Mix together sugar, rice vinegar, orange juice concentrate, soy sauce, and salt in a small bowl. Set aside.

  4. Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Toss dried beef in cornstarch to coat. Fry coated beef in hot oil in small batches until crispy and golden brown; set aside. Drain oil from the wok, leaving about 1 tablespoon.

  5. Add ginger, garlic, and orange zest to remaining oil in wok. Cook and stir briefly until fragrant. Pour in soy sauce mixture; bring to a boil and cook until thick and syrupy, about 5 minutes. Stir in fried beef and cook until heated through. Serve hot over steamed rice and garnish with broccoli.
