A small amount of pepper flakes is needed to balance the sweetness of the hoisin and the ginger. Look for lo mein noodles in your supermarket’s Asian-food section; if you can’t find them, use soba noodles or fettuccine, or try to order some online for future use. This recipe also features lean flank steak, sesame oil, red and green bell peppers, and scallions. Feel free to throw in other crunchy veggies, like carrots and celery, if you'd like. We call for broiling the steak, which makes this recipe quick and easy with minimal cleanup, but check your steak regularly as the cooking times for broilers may not be accurate, depending on the strength of yours.
