1

tablespoon sesame oil

2

cups shredded carrots

1

1

package (7 oz) rice stick noodles

8

oz flank steak, cut from center of 1 flank steak

1

Preparation

In large bowl, beat Dressing ingredients with whisk. Add carrots, onion and cucumber; toss to thoroughly coat vegetables. Cover; set aside.

In large bowl, place noodles. Pour enough boiling water over noodles to cover; stir to break apart noodles. Let stand 5 to 7 minutes, stirring noodles occasionally with tongs until tender. Divide noodles among 4 serving bowls.

Set oven control to broil. Line broiler pan or cookie sheet with foil; spray with cooking spray. Rub steak with vegetable oil, then Chinese five-spice powder. Place on pan. Broil with top 6 inches from heat 5 to 6 minutes on each side, until cooked to desired doneness (140°F for medium). Transfer steak to cutting board, cover with foil; let rest 5 minutes.

Using tongs or slotted spoon, divide vegetables among 4 bowls with noodles. Toss salad greens in remaining dressing, and transfer to bowls with noodles and vegetables.

Thinly slice beef diagonally against the grain, then cut into bite-size pieces and place on top of salad. Serve immediately.
