Asparagus Beef Lo Mein

In a large skillet or wok, stir-fry beef and garlic in oil for 5 minutes or until meat is no longer pink. Add the asparagus; stir-fry for 2 minutes or until crisp-tender.

In a small bowl, combine 1/4 cup water and 1/2 teaspoon seasoning from one ramen noodle seasoning packet; stir until dissolved. Add hoisin sauce; stir into the beef mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. (Discard remaining seasoning from opened packet.)

In a large saucepan, bring remaining water to a boil; add ramen noodles and contents of remaining seasoning packet. Cook for 3 minutes. Remove from the heat; cover and let stand until noodles are tender. Serve with beef mixture.
