FRIDAY'S FAMILY FAVORITES

I made this dish a couple of weeks ago for dinner. It is so easy and delicious and the ramen noodles add an interesting texture. Don't cook them too long, however  or they will turn to starch(I speak from experience). The recipe comes from TASTE OF HOME'S SIMPLE AND DELICIOUS.

SIRLOIN STIR-FRY WITH RAMEN NOODLES
2 pkg.(3 oz. each) beef ramen noodles
2 tbsp. cornstarch
1 lb. beef sirloin steak, cut into thin strips
2 tbsp. canola oil
2 tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 cans(14. oz. each) whole baby corn, rinsed and drained
2 c. fresh broccoli florets
1 c. diced sweet red pepper
1 c. shredded carrots
4 green onions, cut into 1 inch pieces

Set aside seasoning packets from noodles. Cook noodles according to the package directions.

Combine cornstarch and 1/2 c. broth until smooth in a small bowl; set aside. Stir-fry beef in oil until no longer pink in a large skillet or wok, Add soy sauce; cook for 3-4 minutes or until the liquid has evaporated. Remove beef and keep warm.

Add the corn, broccoli, red pepper, carrots. onions, and remaining broth to the pan. Sprinkle with contents of seasoning packets. Stir-fry for 5-7 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender.

Stir cornstarch mixture and add to the skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Drain noodles. Add beef and noodles  to pan; heat through.
