- Pan For browning the steak and cooking the vegetables.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb Chuck steak, cut into medium slices
- 1 large Onion, cut into medium strips
- 1 cup Green bell pepper, cut into medium strips
- 1 cup Red bell pepper, cut into medium strips
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- to taste Salt
- 2 cups Boiling water
- 3 tbsp Oil
Instructions
- In a pan, heat 3 tbsp of oil over medium-high heat. Brown the chuck steak in two batches, about 3-4 minutes per side, avoiding overcrowding the pan.
- Once browned, remove the steak from the pan and set it aside. In the same pan, sauté the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes, then remove and set aside.
- Quickly fry the bell peppers in the same pan for about 1 minute until just tender, then set them aside.
- Return the browned chuck steak to the pan, season with salt and black pepper, and pour in 2 cups of boiling water. Cook on medium heat for about 45 minutes or until the meat is tender, adding more water if needed.
- Once the meat is tender, add the onions and bell peppers back to the pan.
- In a separate bowl, mix the sauce ingredients until smooth. Pour the sauce over the steak and vegetables, stirring gently until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes.
- Serve hot, and enjoy your delicious pepper steak!
