Easy Weeknight Pepper Steak

Easy Weeknight Pepper Steak is a fast and hearty way to feed your family. It cooks in minutes but it tastes like it’s cooked for hours. 

I’ve been making this dish for years…as far back as I can remember. It’s because it is true comfort good for me. My Mom used to make this several times a month. Thinking back, my Dad wasn’t a fan of too many vegetables so if my Mom mixed them up and covered them in gravy, Dad was more apt to eat them. Because of that, I’m pretty sure Weeknight Pepper Steak was one of her favorite quick “go-to” after work meals.

My husband is a fan of almost anything but bell peppers. But when I use them in this dish, he loves them and eats every single one that’s on his plate. There is something about a brown gravy with soy that makes everything taste good – even bell peppers (which I love).
