2. In small bowl, combine orange juice, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, vinegar, and cornstarch.

3. In nonstick 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat, heat vegetable oil. Add ginger and crushed red pepper and cook 20 seconds; add beef and cook 2 minutes or until beef just loses its pink color.

4. Transfer beef to bowl; keep warm. Add orange-juice mixture, cabbage, carrots, and half the green onions to skillet and cook, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens slightly, about 1 minute. Return beef to skillet; heat through.

5. Spoon beef mixture into the lettuce leaves. Sprinkle with remaining green onions.
