Provided by Martha Stewart

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 package (8.8 ounces) soba (Japanese buckwheat noodles)
1 1/2 pounds skirt steak, cut in half or thirds if too large to fit in skillet
1 pound snow peas, stem ends removed
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 cup unsalted peanuts, chopped
Coarse salt and ground pepper

Steps:

In a pot of boiling salted water, cook noodles until al dente. Drain; set aside.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high. Season steak with salt and pepper. Cook (in batches if necessary), turning once, until medium-rare, 2 to 6 minutes per side. Transfer steak to a cutting board, and loosely tent with aluminum foil (reserve skillet with juices).
Add snow peas to skillet, and toss with juices. Cook on medium-high heat, tossing occasionally, until crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add noodles, soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons water; cook until warmed through, about 20 seconds. Transfer to serving bowls. Slice steak; place on top of noodles, and add any accumulated juices. Scatter with peanuts, and serve.

Lo Mein with Hoisin Meatballs image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound ground beef
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
8 ounces dried wide lo mein noodles
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
2 scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1 1/2 cups snow peas, trimmed

Steps:

Preheat the broiler; line a baking sheet with foil. Mix the ground beef, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, 1 minced garlic clove, 1 teaspoon ginger, 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Form into 12 meatballs. Arrange on the prepared baking sheet and broil, turning once, until browned and cooked through, 6 to 7 minutes.
Meanwhile, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook as the label directs; drain and rinse under cold water. Toss with 1 teaspoon vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Whisk 1/3 cup water, the oyster sauce, sesame oil, remaining 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a liquid measuring cup.
Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the remaining 2 minced garlic cloves and 2 teaspoons ginger, the scallions (reserve some of the greens for topping), cherry tomatoes and snow peas. Stir-fry until the snow peas are bright green, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Add the noodles and toss. Pour in the sauce mixture and toss until mostly absorbed, 1 to 2 minutes. Divide the noodle mixture and meatballs among bowls. Top with the reserved scallion greens.
