How to Make Pepper Steak And Noodles

  1. Melt 1/4 cup margarine in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb beef sirloin, cut into 1-inch strips, and sprinkle with 1 tsp garlic powder.
  2. Sauté beef until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove meat from skillet and set aside.
  3. Add 1 medium onion, chopped, and 1 green bell pepper, chopped, to the skillet. Sauté for 2 minutes.
  4. Return the beef to the skillet. Add 1 (14.5 ounce) can of diced tomatoes, undrained, and 1 beef bouillon cube.
  5. Simmer for 20 minutes, or until beef is tender.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp cornstarch, 1/4 cup cold water, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sugar, and 1/2 tsp salt.
  7. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the skillet. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce has thickened, about 1-2 minutes.
  8. Meanwhile, cook 1 lb noodles according to package directions. Drain.
  9. Add the cooked noodles to the skillet and toss gently to coat with the sauce.
  10. Sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or cheese of your choice). Allow the cheese to melt slightly before serving.
