soups | To make a complete meal out of this rich, mildly spicy soup
with hints of green onions and ginger, pair it with a mixed green
salad.

6 oz packaged rice noodles, or vermicelli
2 tsp peanut oil
4 medium scallion(s), green and white parts, divided and chopped
1 medium jalapeño pepper(s), seeded and minced
1 Tbsp ginger root, minced
6 oz lean beef round, or sirloin, trimmed of fat and diced
7 cup fat-free beef broth
2 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup frozen green peas, baby size
2 Tbsp cilantro, chopped
1 tsp hot pepper sauce, or to taste

Using sharp scissors, cut noodles into 3-inch (7.5 cm) pieces.

Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add white
portion of onions, jalapeño and ginger and sauté 1 minute. Add beef
and sauté until browned all over, 3 minutes, stirring constantly.
Add broth and soy sauce and bring mixture to a boil.

Reduce heat to medium-low, partially cover and simmer 10 minutes (if
necessary, skim fat from the surface during cooking).

Add noodles and peas and simmer until noodles are just tender, 3
minutes. Remove from heat and add green portion of scallions,
cilantro and pepper sauce. Serve hot.

Yields about 1 cup per serving.
