Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 pound round steak, cut into thin strips on the diagonal
• ¼ cup orange peel, cut into slivers

• ¼ cup soy sauce
• ¼ cup sherry
• ¼ cup orange marmalade
• ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

2. Return all the beef to the wok. Stir in orange peel, garlic, and ginger; stir-fry 1 minute.
3. In a medium bowl, combine cornstarch, broth, soy sauce, sherry, marmalade, and red pepper. Pour this mixture into the beef, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook for 1 minute. Serve hot.
