Teriyaki and Orange Beef (and Vegetable) Stir Fry

Teriyaki and Orange Beef (and Vegetable) Stir Fry

This recipe is the result of throwing some things together and hoping it turned out well. Remarkably it was a hit! :-)

Ingredients:
1 head of fresh broccoli, chopped
3 carrots peeled and thinly sliced (I used and accordion slicer so they would cook quickly)
1/2 small onion, diced
1 can sliced mushroom
2 Tbsp butter
3 Tbsp olive oil
3 Tbsp teriyaki sauce
3/4 cup water
1 lb beef tips cut into small/bite-size pieces
1 Tbsp brown sugar
2 Tbsp orange juice

Directions:
1. In a large skillet over medium heat add 2 Tbsp butter, 1 Tbsp olive oil, 1 Tbsp teriyaki sauce and all of the veggies. Cook for about 10-12 minutes until veggies soften.
2. Once the veggies are cooked, remove them from the pan.
3. Now add 2 Tbsp olive oil, 1 Tbsp teriyaki sauce and beef tips to pan. Brown the meat on both sides for a couple of minutes.
4. Once the meat is browned add 3/4 cup water and sprinkle the meat with brown sugar, stir and add orange juice. Simmer for a while, letting the liquid reduce a bit. Then, mix in the veggies to coat.
We ate ours over white rice and thought it was quite tasty. Hope you enjoy!
