Ingredients 

1 pound beef top sirloin steak, cut into thin strips

1 tablespoon minced fresh gingerroot

3 garlic cloves, minced, divided

1/4 teaspoon pepper

3/4 teaspoon salt, divided

1 cup light coconut milk

2 tablespoons sugar

1 tablespoon Sriracha chili sauce

1/2 teaspoon grated lime zest

2 tablespoons lime juice

2 tablespoons canola oil, divided

1 large sweet red pepper, cut into thin strips

1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced

1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and thinly sliced

4 cups fresh baby spinach

2 green onions, thinly sliced

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Directions

In a large bowl, toss beef with ginger, 2 garlic cloves, pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt; let stand 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk coconut milk, sugar, chili sauce, lime zest, lime juice and remaining 1/4 tsp. salt until blended.

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high heat. Add beef; stir-fry until no longer pink, 2-3 minutes. Remove from pan.

Stir-fry red pepper, red onion, jalapeno and remaining clove of garlic in remaining 1 Tbsp. oil just until vegetables are crisp-tender, 2-3 minutes. Stir in coconut milk mixture; heat through. Add spinach and beef; cook until spinach is wilted and beef is heated through, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle with green onions and cilantro.
