3 tablespoons chili-garlic sauce

2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar

3 tablespoons neutral oil, divided

Cook the noodles in a large pot of boiling water until tender. Reserve ¼ cup cooking water, then drain the noodles. Into the reserved cooking water, stir the chili-garlic sauce, soy, vinegar and 1 tablespoon of oil. In a 12-inch skillet, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil until shimmering. Add the steak, cumin seeds and ½ teaspoon pepper. Stir briefly, then cook without stirring until the meat no longer is pink. Add the noodles and sauce mixture, then toss.
