Spicy Beef Noodles

Shared by Sunset Magazine

Yield
4 servings

Ingredients

  • 1/2 lb. fusilli pasta
  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 lb. beef sirloin, halved lengthwise and cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
  • 1 large onion, halved lengthwise and cut into thin wedges
  • 3 cups broccoli florets (about 1 inch each)
  • 3 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Sriracha (Asian red chili sauce)
  • 1 Tbsp chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 3 medium tomatoes, cut into 1-inch-thick wedges

Instructions

  1. 1

    Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add fusilli. Cook until tender to the bite, 5 to 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, add beef and cook until it starts to brown, about 3 minutes. Stir and let it continue to brown for 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer beef to a plate, reserving oil, and set aside.

  3. 3

    Add onion to the pan and cook, stirring often, until it begins to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Add soy sauce, Sriracha, cilantro, and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes. Add tomatoes and reserved beef and cook until tomatoes begin to release their juices, 2 to 3 minutes longer. Add the cooked fusilli, stir, and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated or been absorbed by the pasta, 2 to 3 minutes. Season to taste with additional soy sauce or Sriracha. Serve hot with a sprinkling of fresh cilantro, if desired.
