Stir-frying is one of my favorite cooking techniques. I love how the vegetable still have a crunch and how tender the meat is.—Helen Meadows, Huson, Montana

Ingredients

  • 4 romaine lettuce leaves, washed and crisped
  • 1 beef flank steak (1 to 1-1/4 pounds) or tender beef steak of your choice
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic

Tip

Keeping Lettuce Fresh

To store lettuce to keep it crisp and fresh, wash lettuce in cold water and drain very well. Use a “salad spinner” or pat it dry with paper towels. Store in a resealable plastic bag or airtight container with a dry paper towel in the bottom to absorb any leftover moisture. (Be certain to replace the towel if it gets wet.) For extra-crispy salads, you may want to use a lettuce variety like romaine that’s naturally more crisp.

Light-Bodied White Wine

Enjoy this recipe with a light-bodied white wine such as Sauvignon Blanc or Pinot Grigio.
