Spicy Beef in Lettuce Cups Preparation
1. With sharp knife, trim all fat from round steak. Cut round steak lengthwise in half, then cut each half crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick slices. 2. In small bowl, combine orange juice, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, and cornstarch. 3. In nonstick 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, heat vegetable oil. Add ginger and crushed red pepper and cook 20 seconds; add beef and cook 2 minutes or until beef just loses its pink color. Transfer beef to bowl; keep warm. Add orange-juice mixture, cabbage, carrots, and half the green onions to skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute. Return beef to skillet; heat through. 4. Spoon beef mixture into the lettuce leaves. Sprinkle with remaining green onions.
