Ingredients
Directions
Slice green onion tops; set aside. Cut remaining onion sections into 2-inch (5 cm) lengths; toss together with peas, peppers, hoisin, vinegar, ginger root and garlic on large rimmed foil-lined baking sheet. Set aside.
Rub beef all over with Chinese five-spice powder. Grill over medium-high heat for 6 to 8 minutes, turning at least twice, for medium-rare doneness 145°F(63°C). Cover with foil; let rest for 10 minutes, before thinly slicing.
Meanwhile, broil vegetables for 5 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until lightly charred. To serve, mound Sesame Noodles on plates; top with broiled vegetables and beef slices. Sprinkle with peanuts.
Sesame Noodles: Cook 1 pkg (375 g) whole wheat linguine according to package directions. Drain and toss with the reserved sliced green onion tops, 1 tsp (5 mL) sesame oil and 1/2 tsp (2 mL) red pepper flakes.
