Recipe type: Main Dish
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1⁄2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 pound beef sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch strips 11⁄2 cups low-sodium beef broth, divided
  • 1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch strips
  • 1 green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch strips
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
Instructions
  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon of olive oil with the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the steak strips and toss to evenly coat.
  2. In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil until it shimmers. Add the steak strips in a single layer and cook until brown on all sides, about 6 minutes. Add 11⁄4 cups of the beef broth and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, until the steak is softened and cooked through, about 30 minutes. Add the onion and bell pepper and continue simmering, covered, for 5 minutes more.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and remain- ing 1⁄4 cup of beef broth. Stir this into the beef mixture and cook on medium-low heat, stirring continuously, until the broth thickens, about 3 minutes.
