1 tbsp soy sauce
3/4 c. cold water
1/2 tsp McCormick® Ground Ginger

HOW TO MAKE WEEKNIGHT PEPPER STEAK
Step 1: In a small bowl, place the Gravy Mix, water, soy sauce, and ginger. Mix well until combined.
Step 2: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the steak to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring, until no longer pink. Then, pour in the gravy and add the onion and bell pepper. Stir well.
Step 3: Bring everything to a boil, then adjust the heat to low. Let the sauce simmer for about 6 to 8 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce has thickened.
Step 4: Take the skillet off the heat when done and serve the pepper steak right away over cooked rice. Enjoy!
Tips: You can swap ground ginger with 1/4 tsp McCormick® Ground Red Pepper and prep as instructed. You can also sub the onion and bell pepper with 1 bag (16 ounces) of frozen pepper stir-fry blend.
