Dinner on the table in 15 minutes, fresh, fast and easy! Easy 15 Minute Pepper Steak is full of asian flavor and will soon become a regular in your weeknight dinner rotation. Veggies and protein packed in one tasty meal.
T-minus 13 days until the first day of school….the butterflies are flying a little too much, if you ask me. I’m so nervous for my little guy leaving…as much as I need the time to get some work done and he, of course, needs to learn a few things. Like ABC’s, 123’s and stuff like that there. I just don’t want him to grow up AND….I have a rough idea of what the next 13 years are going to be like. Is it weird that I’m already dreading homework and school projects? Gah.
The hustle and bustle that arrives each fall with the start of a new school year is only eased by careful planning. I’m not that great at it…the planning. I’m more of a fly by the seat of my pants kinda gal….which causes a bit of extra stressful turmoil. And so, I try my best to have fly by the seat of my pants recipes on hand to help me save myself…from myself. Dinners like our favorite Cheeseburger Macaroni Skillet and this super quick 15 Minute Pepper Steak. It’s so fast….the rice will take longer to cook than the meal itself….so, do what I do and skip the rice. Or do what a normal person does and get quick cooking rice.
This 15 Minute Pepper Steak is a spin off of another favorite stir-fry recipe that I topped a pile of cauliflower rice with. The cauliflower rice would go very well with this recipe, too, but…frankly…I’m really sick of cauliflower all the things. I like bread, I like pasta, I like rice….you do you. And if that means pulverizing a head of cauliflower in a food processor…then go for it. But know that you’ll be hungry in an hour and reaching for a pint of ice cream. It’s cool. We’ve all been there.
My 15 Minute Pepper Steak is super easy to make and most of the work goes into the chopping of the ingredients. Onions, mini sweet peppers, skirt steak, garlic. That’s about it, then you’ll whisk up a savory asian inspired sauce to toss with your ingredients, cook until thickened a bit…toss on top of a heaping pile of rice…or cauliflower rice. Dig in. It’s so amazing and almost one pot. It certainly knocked a few things, like this easy skillet chicken, out of the weekly meal rotation for a bit.
