Ingredients

  • 1 pound lean ground beef (90% lean)
  • 2 cups cut fresh asparagus (1-inch pieces)
  • 1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained
  • 1 package (5 ounces) sliced fresh shiitake mushrooms

Directions

  • In a large skillet or wok, cook beef over medium heat until no longer pink; drain and set aside. In the same pan, stir-fry the asparagus, water chestnuts, mushrooms and garlic in oil for 5 minutes or until crisp-tender.

Very tasty, I added bell pepper too. We had no leftovers and I REALLY wanted some more. This will definitely make it to our table regularly.

Super easy, inexpensive and quick! Even my husband really liked it and he doesn't normally like asian foods. I did not find it overly salty but did have to add a little extra cornstarch. Great for leftovers too.

I added 1/3 cup of water and 1/2 tsp more of cornstarch to tone down the saltiness and it turned out good.
