12 ounces beef top round steak
1 tablespoon fish sauce
1 tablespoon water
1 teaspoon finely shredded lime peel
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon cooking oil
2 medium zucchini, cut into julienne strips
6 green onions, bias-cut into 1-inch pieces

2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger

directions
Trim fat from beef. Partially freeze beef. Thinly slice across grain into bite-size strips. Set aside.
For sauce, in a small bowl stir together fish sauce, water, lime peel, lime juice, and sugar. Set aside.
Pour cooking oil into a wok or large skillet. (Add more oil as necessary during cooking.) Preheat over medium-high heat.
Stir-fry zucchini in hot oil for 1 to 2 minutes or until crisp-tender. Remove zucchini from the wok. Add green onions to the hot wok; stir-fry for 1 1/2 minutes. Remove green onions from wok.
Add jalapeno pepper, ginger, and garlic to the hot wok. Stir-fry for 15 seconds. Add beef; stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes or until slightly pink in center. Return zucchini and green onions to the wok. Add sauce. Cook and stir about 2 minutes more or until heated through.
Serve immediately with hot cooked rice sticks or rice. Sprinkle with cilantro.

Love buffalo wings? Get that same hot, zippy flavor in everything from deviled eggs to enchiladas. And of course: wings.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
