Simple Steak or Chicken and Peppers Stir-FrySimple Steak or Chicken and Peppers Stir Fry is a fast and healthy weeknight dinner!  Perfect for any day of the week!  If you enjoy peppers as much as we do you will love this dish!  The sauce is divine and of course you can add more vegetables if you want to or need to!

I switch between steak and chicken and frankly, I usually buy what’s on sale or use up whatever I have on hand!  Both are delicious and definitely worth a try in this easy stir fry! 

I have even made this dish as a side, with no meat, and everyone loved it!  I end up with so many peppers in the summer that I have to use up and I thought why not and luckily it worked!

Needless to say I have quite a few things I love to do with peppers!  This includes filling them with meat and stuffing in my Stuffing Peppers or meat, rice and cheese in my Awesome Stuffed Peppers.  I also fill them with beef or short rib and lentils in my Lentil Short Rib Stuffed Peppers.

I regularly bake eggs inside sweet peppers in our Roasted Sweet Pepper Cups and Eggs.  You should also have a look at our recipe for Chicken Melts in a Pepper which is a personal favorite of mine!

Now that I think about it I use peppers in so many recipes and I can’t seem to help it!  Am I the only one who uses peppers a lot?  I just can’t be.  Can I?
