Ingredients
- 1 lb. or 1½ lbs. steak, sliced THIN. (Use Top Round, lean for London Broil. Look for good marbling in the steak.)
- 2 or 3 large yellow onions
- 2 green peppers, 2 red peppers, or mix and match with orange peppers, which add wonderful color as well as flavor
- 2 or 3 large firm tomatoes (preferably fresh from the farm stand)
- 1 can Campbell's chicken broth
- 2 packets MBT or Herb Ox beef broth
- Soy sauce (La Choy)
- Corn starch to thicken sauce (Argo)
- Rice
- Oil to lightly grease cooking skillet
Directions:
- Put about 1 or 2 tablespoons of oil in center of large heavy skillet and heat on low flame. Using a paper towel, smear oil around the bottom of the skillet.
- Brown thinly sliced steak while slicing onions. (Slice onions fairly thick.) Push steak to one side of skillet and lightly brown onions in steak juices.
- Add chicken broth, then open one packet of beef broth in 3 or 4 ounces of hot water, stir and add. Do same with other packet of beef broth and add.
- Add 4 tablespoons of soy sauce, add soy sauce to the four corners of the skillet. Stir lightly with a wooden spoon.
- Cover skillet and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes while cutting up peppers (cut in fairly big chunks).
- Add cut-up peppers to top of skillet and let simmer, covered for about 8 minutes. Check on them for your preference (soft, crunchy). Cut up tomatoes in big chunks (when the boys were young I would peel the skins first, but they can handle them now!)
- Add tomatoes to top of skillet and let simmer for a few seconds only.
- Prepare cornstarch, using cold water, and add to skillet (in all four corners) and mix lightly, so as not to lump.
- Cook rice after you have added peppers.
- Once you have thickened sauce, bring skillet to table, serve over rice and enjoy.
