Easy Pepper Steak with Rice
My Easy Pepper Steak |
Here is another of my recipes that uses a "boxed" item as the main ingredient. This one uses the precooked refrigerated roast beef tips that can be found by the meat section. My store often has them for around $6 plus there have been a few $1.50 off coupons in the newspaper lately. I also use the 12 oz frozen pre-cut frozen peppers which are normally 3 for $5 at our store (We use peppers and onions a lot and lack the transportation to get fresh ones on a regular basis.) I keep rice in the pantry so this recipe runs under $10 for 4 servings which is less than what most similar frozen entrees cost and tastes better too!
Refrigerated Precooked Beef Tips (with Au Jus or Gravy)
2 cups bell peppers sliced into strips
1 cup onion sliced into strips
Rice (equivalent of 4 cups cooked)
1/8th cup Worcestershire sauce
- Boil the rice according to directions. Set aside when finished.
- Prepare the beef tips in the microwave as directed. Let stand as directed.
- Heat a saute pan with oil and brown the peppers and onions. (If using frozen veggies you will have to cook them a little longer to remove the extra moisture, firming them back up.)
- Add a couple dashes of Worcestershire sauce to the pepper/onion and season with a little salt.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- Remove the beef tips from the dish and break up the meat (if necessary)
- Add the 1/8th cup Worcestershire to the au jus or gravy and mix well.
- Add in the meat and pepper/onion mix and combine.
- Serve over rice.
IF you haven't noticed, we eat most of our dinners on paper plates. With a young college student as a husband, regular plates can't keep up with him, so we just eat on these lol |
