    Citrus Beef Salad Stir-Fry

    Before we dive into the kitchen, it's important to understand the nutritional foundation of our ingredients. Citrus fruits, renowned for their high vitamin C content, offer a boost to the immune system, alongside a plethora of antioxidants. Combined, beef provides a rich source of bioavailable iron and proteins, crucial for energy and muscle health. These benefits, when integrated into a balanced diet, support a robust and healthy lifestyle.

    To turn your Citrus Beef Salad Stir-Fry into a complete and satisfying meal, consider pairing ideas that balance flavors and nutrition like Radish and Cucumber Salad or Sautéed Carrots and Zucchini.

    Ingredients

    Serves: 4 Prep Time: 10 minutes Cook Time: 10 minutes

    • Cooking fat
    • 1 lb tender beef cut into thin strips
    • 1 sliced onion
    • 2 minced garlic cloves
    • 1 teaspoon grated ginger
    • 1 teaspoon lemon zest
    • 1 teaspoon orange zest
    • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
    • 1 tablespoon orange juice
    • A big bunch of spinach
    • 1 lemon, peeled and segmented
    • 1 orange, peeled and segmented

    How to Make Citrus Beef Salad Stir-Fry

    Stir-fry the beef with some cooking fat. 

    Remove the beef from the wok, make sure the wok regains its temperature, add more cooking fat and stir-fry the onion, ginger and garlic for about 3 minutes. 

    Return the beef to the wok and add the orange and lemon juice. Bring to a boil and add the spinach, lemon zest and orange zest. 

    Cook the spinach until just wilted. Serve on a bed made with the segmented lemon and orange.
