Directions

  1. Remove 1 tablespoon zest and 1/4 cup juice from 1 orange. Peel and section remaining 2 oranges.

  2. Bring water and brown rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, 45 to 50 minutes.

  3. Stir together zest, orange juice, broth, soy sauce, chili-garlic sauce, marmalade, sesame oil, and salt in a small bowl. Whisk in cornstarch.

Add vegetable oil and carrot to the wok, stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes. Add green onions and bell pepper, stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes more. Add garlic and ginger, stir-fry for 30 seconds more.

  5. Return beef to the wok. Stir cornstarch mixture, then add to the wok. Cook, stirring, until thickened and bubbling. Add orange sections, cook, stirring, for 1 minute more.
