This is an easy, budget-friendly stir-fry meal. You can make the sauce in advance and refrigerate, which makes this even more suitable for a quick weeknight dinner. Feel free to customize the choice of veggies to your liking; this is just a combo that we enjoy.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

6 ounces spaghetti
1 pound lean ground beef
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon dry sherry
2 teaspoons sesame oil
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 red bell pepper, cored and sliced vertically
1 sweet onion, peeled and sliced vertically
1 cup snow peas
1 stalk celery, sliced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 pinch red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon thinly sliced green onion

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook spaghetti in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 12 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cook ground beef in a large skillet over medium heat until browned and crumbly, but still a little chunky, about 5 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • Whisk hoisin sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, water, sherry, sesame oil, cornstarch, and brown sugar together in a small bowl.
  • Heat olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add red bell pepper, onion, snow peas, celery, ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Stir-fry until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Return ground beef to the skillet and mix well.
  • Drain spaghetti and to the skillet with the sauce. Cook and stir until mixture is well combined and sauce has slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Serve immediately and garnish with sliced green onions.
