Kicky Steak Strips with Rice

A couple of things while I am thinking about it. First, part of my job is proofreading the paper before it gets printed. Obviously, I don't proofread my own recipes as someone pointed out that last week's recipe, the pound cake, had 5-75 minutes baking time, not 50-75 minutes. She laughed, as at least that mistake was obvious. I will try to be a little more attentive to my typing. Also, I thought the pound cake took a lot of eggs (8),but Sylvia made one for the church coffee hour that took 10 eggs and also the pound of butter. She said it was a 1930 recipe. Back then I'm sure it was a way to use up extra eggs and butter.

Second, in conversation with a reader about recipes, she mentioned I should do more beef recipes. I will work on that. I have found beef expensive lately so perhaps that is why. She also mentioned adding in recipes for the Instant Pot. At 96 years of age, she has one of the smaller ones and loves it. I don't have one, but Joe will use the pressure cooker sometimes. When I Googled the Instant Pot, there are quite a few different ones. I thought it would be one kind only. So if you have an Instant Pot and some great recipes, I'd love to share

I haven't tried this recipe. It was in my email and it was beef and it looks easy and tasty.

INGREDIENTS:

½ c. Worcestershire sauce

1 Tbsp olive oil

2 Tbsp yellow mustard

½ c. chopped sweet onion

1 pound top sirloin steak, cut into thin strips

2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped

1 c. uncooked long-grain white rice

1 tsp pepper

DIRECTIONS:

In a medium container, mix Worcestershire sauce and mustard. Place steak strips in the mixture. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 30 minutes.

Place rice and water in a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and cook 20 minutes.

Heat olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onion and garlic, and cook until tender. Season with pepper. Place steak into the saucepan and cook 5 to 7 minutes on each side to desired doneness. Discard remaining marinade. Serve over the cooked rice.

MY NOTES:

One of the commenters said they added hot sauce. Another said they cooked the marinade and used it over the rice. I can see variations in this recipe. If you try it or change it, please share.
