Description

This Chinese-inspired dish features tender flank steak marinated in a savory blend of soy sauce, sherry, and garlic. The beef is sautéed with peppers and onions, then simmered with fresh tomato wedges in a thickened, aromatic sauce. It is a hearty and flavorful main course that pairs perfectly with steamed rice.
