Oh, what memories of college days come to mind as I prepare today’s lunch! Tammy’s Pepper Steak! It was the recipe I asked for at my bridal shower. So simple, but so delicious! Thank you, Tam!
1 1/2 lbs. round or sirloin steak
1/4 c. vegetable oil
1 c. water
1 medium onion cut into long slices
1/2 t. garlic salt
1/2 t. garlic
2 medium green peppers, cut in strips
2 medium tomatoes, cut in eighths
1 T. corn starch
2 T. soy sauce
(2-3 t. sugar – for those who can stick to the original!)
Cut meat into 1/4″ strips. Heat in oil until brown – 5 min. Stir in water, onion and seasonings. Heat to boiling, reduce heat – cover and simmer 12-15 min. (round), 5-8 min. (sirloin). Add green peppers last 5 minutes. Blend corn starch, sugar, soy sauce. Stir into meat until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute. Cut each tomato into eighths – heat through. Serve over rice.
