Steps:
- 1. NOTE: I cooked my steak and onions and then bell peppers in batches as not to overload my soup pot. You want to slightly brown your peppers while cooking them quickly so that they hold their texture, if you overload the pot, they will get mushy before they get slightly caramelized. I season my peppers each time I place a batch in the soup pot with granulated garlic and Mrs. Dash.
- 2. Slice beef and onions into strips then into bite size pcs. Place in a large soup pot with a little olive oil on high heat and begin to brown stirring often. Season with granulated garlic, Mrs. Dash and black pepper. Once they are mostly brown add 1 tsp of reduced sodium teriyaki sauce and 1/2-1 tsp cumin, mix and continue to cook for a few minutes more, remove from pot and set aside.
- 3. While meat is cooking slice bell peppers and cut into same size as you did steak and onion. Once you have removed steak from pot add a little more olive oil, a couple handfuls of peppers. Season with a little granulated garlic and Mrs. Dash and stir OFTEN to slightly brown, remove from pot and repeat until all peppers are slightly cooked.
- 4. To empty soup pot add 1/3 c butter and 1/3 c of flour, mix to make a roux. Add 4 c of rich beef stock stirring constantly. Make sure there are no lumps in sauce. Add 1 tbsp. of A-1 sauce for flavor and 1 tsp of Kitchen Bouquet for color. Add steak and peppers back in, stir, and remove from heat. Salt to taste.
AUTHENTIC PEPPER POT SOUP
The authentic version uses tripe. I have never cared for tripe, myself, and I have always substituted chicken, beef, turkey, sausage or even ham instead.

THE BEST PEPPER STEAK
Pepper steak is a Chinese-American stir-fry dish that coats tender sliced steak and crisp-tender bell peppers in a deeply savory and slightly sweet sauce. We used flank steak here, but it is equally delicious with skirt or flap steak. No matter the cut, make sure to slice it thinly across the grain to ensure the meat is tender in the final dish. We tested bell peppers cut into a variety of sizes and found that one-inch pieces worked best, yielding peppers cooked to the perfect doneness (not too snappy but not at all mushy).

Steps:
- Freeze the flank steak until the meat is slightly frozen and firm enough to thinly slice with ease, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Finely grate 2 cloves of the garlic into a large bowl. Peel the ginger and cut it in half. Finely grate one of the ginger halves into the same bowl; reserve the remaining ginger. Whisk in 3 tablespoons of the soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of the Shaoxing wine, 1 1/2 teaspoons of the sugar and several large grinds of pepper to combine. Set aside.
- Thinly slice the flank steak against the grain on a very slight bias into 1/4-inch-thick strips. Cut any extra-long pieces in half; the strips should be no longer than 3 to 4 inches. Add to the bowl with the marinade and stir to combine. Cover with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour and up to overnight.
- About 30 minutes before finishing the dish, use tongs to transfer the steak to a large baking sheet lined with several layers of paper towels and arrange in a single layer. Lay additional paper towels on top to help absorb any excess marinade. Set aside to take the chill off the meat.
- Whisk together the beef broth, sesame oil, remaining 1/4 cup soy sauce, remaining 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar and a couple large grinds of pepper in a medium bowl; set aside.
- Finely mince the remaining 2 cloves garlic and add to a small bowl. Finely mince the remaining ginger and add to the same bowl. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the canola oil in a large skillet over high heat. When the oil starts to shimmer, add a third of the steak strips in a single layer and cook until well-browned on the first side, about 1 minute. Flip and cook until browned on the second side, about 1 more minute. Transfer to a large plate. Cook the remaining steak in 2 additional batches, adding 1 1/2 teaspoons of canola oil per batch. Transfer to the plate.
- Lower the heat to medium high. Add the onion and a splash of water to the empty skillet and cook, scraping up any browned bits and stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add the red and green bell peppers and cook, stirring frequently and adding another splash of water if the skillet starts to get too brown on the bottom, until the vegetables are crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until softened, about 1 minute.
- Return the steak to the skillet and stir to combine. Whisk the cornstarch into the sauce, then pour it into the skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce is thick and glossy, about 2 minutes. Transfer the pepper steak to a large serving platter and top with sliced scallions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately with a side of steamed rice.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium-high. In a small bowl, combine cumin, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Rub the spice blend over all of the steak pieces along with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Let rest at room temperature, about 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large pot, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil and heat over medium heat. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 4 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and garlic and saute until mushrooms are tender, adding extra oil if needed. Pour in the broth, jalapenos and crushed tomatoes. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer while beef cooks.
- On a hot grill sear steak until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from grill to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes. Cut beef into strips and stir into soup, along with spinach. Season soup, to taste. Transfer to serving bowls and top with a dollop of sour cream and tortilla chips.
STUFFED GREEN PEPPER SOUP
I gave some of this soup to a neighbor who said that her husband probably wouldn't eat it as it had onions in it. She said he tried it, loved it, and asked me for the recipe. I have used instant brown rice, and it worked fine.

Tips:

- If you don't have time to make your own chicken broth, you can use store-bought broth. Just be sure to choose a low-sodium broth so that you can control the amount of salt in the soup.
- Feel free to add other vegetables to the soup, such as carrots, celery, or potatoes. You can also add a cup of cooked rice or noodles to make the soup more filling.
- To make the soup spicier, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes. You can also add a few drops of Sriracha sauce.
- Serve the soup with a side of crusty bread or crackers.
