Ingredients
  • 1 pound Linguine or Spaghetti
  • 1 pound Flank steak, cut into very thin strips
  • 1 Beef bouillon cube
  • 1 cup Hot water
  • 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
  • 1 bunch Broccoli florets
  • 2 cups Low-sodium tomato sauce
  • 15 Cherry tomatoes, halved
Directions
  1. 1
    Cook the linguine or spaghetti in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside, reserving a small cup of pasta water.
  2. 2
    While the pasta cooks, dissolve the beef bouillon cube in 1 cup of hot water. Set this broth aside.
  3. 3
    Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the thin strips of flank steak in a single layer and sear until browned and cooked through. Remove beef from the skillet and set aside.
  4. 4
    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp.
  5. 5
    Add the halved cherry tomatoes to the broccoli and cook for another minute until they begin to soften.
  6. 6
    Pour in the low-sodium tomato sauce and the dissolved beef broth. Stir well to combine.
  7. 7
    Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Add the drained pasta to the skillet and toss everything together until the pasta is evenly coated in the sauce. If the sauce is too thick, add a splash of reserved pasta water.
  8. 8
    Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot.

Note

Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of water to restore moisture.

Substitutions: You can substitute flank steak with sirloin or skirt steak. For a vegetarian version, omit the beef and use vegetable bouillon instead of beef.

Spice Level: To adjust the heat, add red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the tomato sauce mixture.

Tip: For extra flavor, marinate the beef strips in a little soy sauce and garlic for 15 minutes before cooking.
