This is a quick one-dish dinner. If you use frozen broccoli, run it under cold water to thaw it slightly before adding it to the pan. Using a whole wheat variety of pasta adds fiber and nutirents to the dish without sacrificing taste. If you want to spice the dish up a little, increase the fresh ginger to 2 tablespoons and add up to 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes. You can also substitute chicken breasts or ground beef for the meat.
Ingredients
- 1 Tbsp. olive oil
- 1 lb. lean beef (top sirloin steak), sliced thin
- 1 cup broccoli florets, chopped
- 4 ea. scallions, thinly sliced
- 1 Tbsp. minced fresh ginger
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 3 Tbsp. stir-fry sauce
- 8 ounces (1/2 package) angel hair pasta (I used a whole wheat variety, and the kids loved it!)
Instructions
- Cook pasta according to package directions.
- Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, add beef and cook until the beef is no longer pink.
- Add the broccoli, ginger, and garlic to the skillet and cook for about 5 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and stire in the stir-fry sauce.
- Add cooked angel hair pasta to the skillet and toss to combine.
