Yield 2 full meals, 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 (3 ounce) packages beef-flavor ramen noodles
1 1/2 lbs beef (any lean cut)
4 scallions (if your garlic or onion grew a green top in storage use this)
1 cup slivered onion
5 garlic cloves, minced
6 tablespoons fresh parsley, coarsely chopped incl. minced stems
1 cup chopped celery
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons ground ginger or 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger

2 teaspoons rice vinegar (optional) or 2 teaspoons white vinegar (optional)
2 teaspoons lime juice or 2 lime wedges

Steps:

  • Cut beef into 1/2 inch pieces.
  • Mince garlic and parsley stems (and ginger if fresh), coarsely chop parsley leaves, chop celery, scallions and finely slice onion (1 medium/small).
  • Drop ramen noddles into boiling water, remove from heat, allow to cool a few minutes then drain. Noodles will not be fully cooked yet.
  • Heat frying pan or wok to med high, add 1/2 cup water, seasoning packets, and onion. Cook a couple minutes.
  • Add beef pieces, toss so each side is browned.
  • Add all other vegetables/flavorings. Add ramen noodles, toss, heat through a couple minutes. Serve in two bowls and top with lime juice.
  • My DH who does not in general like Asian food and is more meat-and-potatoes complimented me on this. I whipped it up late at night for a flavorful, nutritious meal that was not fast food.
