Beef, Bok Choy and Oyster Mushroom Stir-Fry

This is a great stir-fry with its tender cut of beef, crisp bok choy and savory hoisin sauce. Feel free to substitute boneless chicken breast or shrimp for the beef.

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS
1. To make the sauce, combine the stock, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, cornstarch, brown sugar, sesame oil, garlic and ginger in a small bowl. Whisk together until smooth.

2. Dust the steak pieces with flour. Lightly coat a large, nonstick skillet with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat and add the oil. Sauté the steak for 3 minutes or just until browned. Do not cook through. Set aside and wipe the pan clean.

3. Respray the pan and sauté the mushrooms for 5 minutes or until soft. Add the bok choy and sauté for 2 minutes or it begins to wilt. Add the sauce, water chestnuts and beef and stir-fry for 2 minutes or until the sauce thickens.

4. Place on a platter and garnish with cashews, green onions and cilantro.
