Spicy Asian Beef and Noodles

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, saute oil, crushed red pepper flakes, garlic, ginger, and sliced scallions (whites) for about a minute. Add the ground beef, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, or until beef is browned.

Add beef broth, soy sauce, and peanut butter; stir until combined. Add bell peppers and carrots and saute until tender, 6-8 minutes. Pour mixture over a bed of noodles. Garnish with green scallion tops and optional chopped peanuts and sesame seeds if desired.
