Asian Steak and Pepper Stir-Fry
ASIAN STEAK AND PEPPERS IS ONE OF THOSE MEALS THAT IS EASY AND QUICK TO FIX FOR THE FAMILY. SINCE I ONLY HAD 1 RIB EYE STEAK AND A LOT OF PIECES OF PEPPERS LEFT OVER FROM STUFFED PEPPERS I HAD MADE THE NIGHT BEFORE, I DECIDED TO DO A STIR FRY.
I USED ORANGE, RED, GREEN AND YELLOW PEPPERS BUT YOU CAN USE WHATEVER TYPE OF PEPPERS YOU HAVE ON HAND. THE DIFFERENT COLORS MAKE IT MORE BEAUTIFUL.
STIR FRY THE STEAK FIRST AND REMOVE FROM THE PAN. THEN IN THE SAME PAN STIR FRY THE VEGETABLES. THE SAUCE IS VERY IMPORTANT. SO I USED A FAVORITE SAUCE FROM A FLANK STEAK SALAD THAT I LOVE. THE SAUCE HAS ASIAN CHILI SAUCE, SOY SAUCE, BROWN SUGAR AND LIME JUICE WITH SOME FAVORITE HERBS.
