Ease of Preparation
Easy
Ingredients
• 2 teaspoons canola oil
• 1 pound beef flank steak, very thinly sliced against the grain
(see Tip)
• 4 cups chopped bok choy, (1 small head, about 1 pound)
• 4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
• 1 cup water
• 4 ounces wide rice noodles
• 2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
• 1 1/2 cups mung bean sprouts
• 4 tablespoons chopped fresh basil, or to taste
Preparation
1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven or soup pot over high heat. Add beef
and cook, stirring often, until just cooked, about 2 minutes. Transfer
to a plate using tongs, leaving the juices in the pot.
2. Add bok choy to the pot and cook, stirring, until wilted, about
2 minutes. Add broth and water, cover and bring to a boil. Add noodles
and soy sauce; simmer until the noodles are soft, about 4 minutes.
Return the beef to the pot and cook until heated through, 1 to 2
minutes more. Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with bean sprouts and
basil. Serve hot.
Tips & Notes
• Tip: If you have a little extra time before dinner, put the
flank steak in the freezer for about 20 minutes to help make it easier
to slice thinly.
