Cookbook:Steak and Peppers

Cookbook | Ingredients | Recipes

Steak and peppers is a simple dish to throw together with leftover meat. Sliced seitan, seared flank steak, or any other protein would probably work as well. It also works well as a main dish with spinach and garlic and risotto.

Ingredients

For 4 servings:

• ½ large onion, sliced
• 2 large bell peppers, sliced
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 12 ounces steak strips
• 12 ounces crushed tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon capers
• 7–10 leaves fresh basil
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• 1 pinch red pepper flakes

Procedure

1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet. Sear steak strips, bell peppers and onion together with salt and red pepper flakes for a few minutes, then turn heat down and add crushed tomatoes and capers.
2. Simmer, covered, for ten minutes or until steak is cooked through and tender.
3. Chiffonade the basil and add, then simmer for another couple of minutes.
