Mu Shu Steak and Apple Wraps

The whole family will have fun with this delicious and nutritious whole wheat tortilla wrap. The honey-hoisin sauce flavor blend compliments the cinnamon-rubbed steak slices and crunchy coleslaw and apple mix. Mom will be impressed!

Prep Time: 25-30 min

Cook’s Tip: One boneless beef top sirloin steak, cut 3/4 inch thick or 2 beef shoulder center steaks, cut 3/4 inch thick (about 1 pound) may be substituted for tri-tip steaks. Pan-broil top sirloin steak 10 to 13 minutes (shoulder center steaks 9 to 12 minutes) for medium rare to medium doneness, turning once.

Ingredients:

beef tri-tip steaks, cut 1 inch thick (about 4 ounces each)

3/4

teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4

teaspoon pepper

1/4

cup hoisin sauce

tablespoon honey

Salt (optional)

cups tri-color coleslaw mix (with green cabbage, red cabbage and carrots)

Granny Smith apple, peeled, thinly sliced

medium whole wheat flour tortillas (8 to 10-inch diameter), warmed

Instructions:

Combine cinnamon and pepper; press evenly onto beef steaks. Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Place steaks in skillet; cook 9 to 12 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning occasionally.
Combine hoisin sauce and honey in large bowl. Carve steaks into thin slices; season with salt, if desired. Add steak slices, coleslaw mix and apple to hoisin mixture; toss to coat.
Place equal amounts of beef mixture down center of each tortilla, leaving 1-1/2-inch border on right and left sides. Fold bottom edge up over filling. Fold right and left sides to center, overlapping edges; secure with wooden picks, if necessary.

Makes 4 servings.
