Asian Beef & Vegetables

1/3 C. reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes
4 (1/2-inch-thick) boneless beef top round steaks
3 oz. dried thin spaghetti
3 tsp. olive oil, divided
1 medium red onion (6 oz.), halved and sliced
1 red bell pepper, chopped
5 green onions, thinly sliced
1 T. minced fresh ginger
1/2 lb. savoy or green cabbage, finely shredded (5 C.)
1/4 lb. crimini or white mushrooms, sliced
1/2 C. water
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
2 tsp. minced garlic

Stir together soy sauce and red pepper flakes in a shallow glass baking dish. Add steaks, turn to coat and let marinate at room temperature 30 minutes, turning once. Meanwhile, cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain and rinse with cold water. Heat a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 tsp. of the oil, the onion and bell pepper. Cook about 5 minutes or until onion softens. Add green onions, ginger and garlic. Cook 1 minute, stirring. Add cabbage, mushrooms, water, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat. Cook, stirring, about 3 minutes or until vegetables are tender-crisp. Add pasta to skillet, tossing with vegetables until pasta is heated through. Transfer to plate; cover and keep warm. Wipe out skillet. Add remaining 1 tsp. oil and heat over high heat. Add steaks; cook 1 minute per side or until well browned and medium-rare (instant-read thermometer inserted in center registers 145 degrees F). Place on a cutting board and thinly slice on the diagonal. Divide pasta and vegetables between 4 serving plates; top with steak.
