I don't remember 'zackly how I got to it. But, a re-search via St. Google gives

Sometimes with a breakfast of eggs, sausage patties, cottage fried tatties
w/garlic sauce and wheat toast (no jelly). Wednesday night from corned beef,
boiled taters - mashed up and buttered, boiled carrots -- hold the cabbage.
Corned beef was slathered with a nicely peppy horseradish. S&P on the other. A
few days ago at Tai Pan H&S soup followed by Hunan Pork (nicely bitey) over
plain fried rice. I expect it when I do the tangerine beef as I know there is
sugar in the sauce. But, not from Hunan pork, corned beef, etc. 

It's only moderately worrying as my fasting sugars remain well under the upper
limit of 125 I have set for myself. But, it's also something new and I have
learned from bitter experience to not ignore things like that or try to "tough
it out".

      Title: Spicy Tangerine Beef
 Categories: Oriental, Beef, Chilies, Fruits, Vegetables
      Yield: 4 Servings


      4    Tangerines
      3 tb Oil
    3/4 lb boneless beef; thin sliced
           - crosswise
      2 tb Cornstarch + 1/2 ts
  1 1/2 lb Bunch broccoli; in flowerets
           - stems peeled, cut in 1/4"
           - slices
      3    Green onions; in 2" diagonal
           - pieces
      1 md Red chile; thin sliced
      3 cl Garlic; minced
      1 tb Minced, peeled fresh ginger
      3 tb Soy sauce
    1/4 ts Crushed red pepper

  Cut peel and white pith from 1 tangerine. Over small bowl,
  cut on either side of membranes to remove each segment
  from tangerine, allowing fruit and juice to drop into
  bowl; set aside. From remaining fruit, with vegetable
  peeler, remove eight 3-inch-long strips peel (about 3/4
  inch wide each). With knife, remove any white pith from
  peel. Squeeze 3/4 cup juice.

  In 12" skillet, heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil over high
  heat until hot. Add strips of peel and cook until lightly
  browned, about 3 minutes. Remove peel to large bowl.

  Meanwhile, on waxed paper, toss beef slices with 2
  tablespoons cornstarch to coat evenly. Cook half of beef
  until crisp and lightly browned on both sides, about 5
  minutes; remove to bowl with peel. Repeat with remaining 1
  tablespoon vegetable oil and remaining beef.
 
  Add broccoli and 2 tablespoons water to skillet. Reduce
  heat to medium; cover and cook 2 minutes. Increase heat to
  high. Remove cover and add green onions and red pepper;
  cook 2 minutes, stirring. Add garlic and ginger; cook 1
  minute longer.

  Meanwhile, in cup, stir juice, soy sauce, crushed red
  pepper, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch until
  blended.

  Add juice mixture and cook until sauce thickens slightly
  and boils, stirring. Return beef mixture to skillet. Add
  citrus segments with any juice in bowl; gently toss to
  combine.
