About Tangerine beef

Tangerine Beef is a flavorful dish originating from Chinese cuisine, known for its irresistible combination of sweet, tangy, and savory flavors. Typically made with thinly sliced beef, the dish is stir-fried to achieve a crispy caramelized exterior, then coated in a vibrant sauce infused with fresh tangerine zest, soy sauce, and a touch of sugar or honey. Aromatic garlic and ginger enhance its bold taste, while red chili peppers may be added for a spicy kick. While the lean protein in beef offers essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins, the dish can be high in sodium and added sugars depending on the preparation. Opting for reduced-sodium soy sauce and incorporating more vegetables into the stir-fry can make it a more balanced option. Tangerine Beef is a treat for the senses and best enjoyed in moderation as part of a well-rounded diet.
