Pepper Steak & Baked Sweet Potato

Went for a walk with a friend and started talking about the menu for the day, I knew I wanted to do steak but wasn't sure how to make and what side to make with it. As we were talking we both got plenty of ideas on what to make for dinner and when we finished our walk and I came home I was totally excited cause we had figured out our dinner menu for the day.

Pepper Steak Recipe

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons olive oil

 1 medium onion, chopped

 2 large bell peppers, sliced into thin strips

 2 cloves garlic, minced

 1/3 cup soy sauce

  1 1/2 pounds flank steak, cut into thin strips ( I seasoned my meat beforehand)

Directions:

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook onion, bell peppers, and garlic in oil until tender-crisp, stirring frequently. Set aside.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Pour soy sauce, then add beef. Cook beef, stirring frequently, until done, about 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in cooked vegetables, and cook another 10 to 15 minutes.

Note: Tweak it and add your own touch to it. If you want a thicker sauce stir in a little flour or cornstarch before removing from heat. 

I wanted to make my dinner look different and so I decided to cut the sweet potato and pour the pepper steak and sauce in the middle, that gave the sweet potato a different taste.

My husband was delighted and thought it was very pretty but delicious at the same time. He enjoys sauce on almost everything so when he saw all the sauce on top of the sweet potato and running on his plate he was very excited and ready to eat it. 

You can probably eat two sweet potatoes, but one was enough for me. Enjoy and have an awesome day.
