Oriental Pepper Steak


 
I found this in my recipe box.  It has been a long time since I have made it.  We are trying to eat a little healthier this year, and I though that this recipe would be a good example.  It is easy, it takes a minimum number of ingredients, and I think you'll enjoy how it tastes.



Ingredients:
1½ lbs. boneless chuck steak
4 green onions
1 c. peapods (optional)
2 bell pepper, cut into strips
4 T. canola oil
1 envelope Lipton onion soup mix
¼ t. hot pepper flakes
2 c. water
1½-2 T. corn starch, dissolved into ½ c. cold water or broth

*No salt or pepper added to this dish due to the onion soup mix.  However, season to taste.


 

In a wok or skillet, heat 2 T. oil.  Brown meat and remove from pan.


Add 2 T. oil to pan.  Add pepper strips and peapods, and stir fry until vegetables are tender.


Add hot pepper flakes.


 


Add beef to the vegetable mixture.  Add 2 c. water and the soup mix.  Simmer covered for 10 minutes.


Remove cover, stir in corn starch/broth slurry to thicken.


Serve over rice and top with chopped green onion.
