Ingredients

1 lb Flank steak

1 tsp Cornstarch

2 tsp Vegetable oil, divided

1 tsp Water

1 tsp Whiskey (optional)

1/2 tsp Low-sodium soy sauce

1/4 tsp Salt

10 oz Uncooked soba (buckwheat noodles) or vermicelli

1/2 cup (1 inch) sliced green onions

1/2 cup Fat-free, less sodium chicken broth

1/2 tsp Sugar

4 Plum tomatoes, quartered (about 1/2 lb)

1 tsp Oyster sauce

1 clove Garlic, crushed

Preparation

1. Trim fat from steak, and cut diagonally across the grain into thin slices. Combine the cornstarch, 1 tsp oil, water, whiskey, soy sauce, and salt in a large zip-top bag. Add the steak; seal and toss well to coat. Marinate in refrigerator 10 minutes. 2. While steak is marinating, cook the noodles according to package directions. Drain noodles, and keep warm. Remove steak from bag, discarding the marinade. Heat 1 tsp oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the green onions, and saute 30 seconds. Add steak, and cook 4 minutes or until steak loses its pink color. Remove steak from pan, and keep warm. Add chicken broth sugar and tomatoes to pan, and stir well. Cover, reduce heat, and cook 3 minutes or until thick. Stir in the steak, oyster sauce, and garlic, and cook 4 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Combine the beef mixture with noodles in a large bowl, and toss well.
