Tasty Tuesday: Spicy Beef Pepper Steak

A coworker of mine gave me a recipe (by Great America) for spicy beef pepper steak that was so good I thought I’d share it. I didn’t find it spicy at all. If you like things spicy you can add in some cayenne pepper or red crushed pepper during the cooking process. The original recipe is included below.

6. Add beef & brown. Add 1/4 to 1/2 cup water to meat & simmer 20 minutes or until tender.
