Chinese Pepper Round Steak

This simple recipe with round steak is different from other pepper steak recipes that I have found. Tastes even better on the second day! I have also poured the rice directly into the pot and let it simmer. It soaks up the tomato mixture and is especially good this way.

Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
• ¼ cup soy sauce
• ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
• 1 (10.5 ounce) can beef consomme
• 1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed tomato soup

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; quickly cook and stir sliced beef in hot oil until meat has begun to brown and is no longer pink inside, about 10 minutes. Remove beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 2

Whisk together condensed soup, beef consommé, green peppers, soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, ginger, garlic salt, and pepper in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring sauce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until bell peppers have begun to soften, about 10 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in beef; simmer until bell peppers are cooked and flavors have blended, about 20 more minutes. Serve over hot cooked rice.
