Seasoned Beef Tips and Broccoli

It seems I'm always trying to watch what I eat.  My husband on the other hand can eat just about anything and never gains a pound. I'm always trying to come up with something that will satisfy both of our appetites.  This dish made with lean beef and broccoli does just that.  It's easy to make, filling and full of flavor. I use the Bow Tie Pasta because it has the perfect texture for this dish.  Don't know if you could ask for much else.  This recipe serves four, and freezes very well for a quick brown bag lunch. It'll make your co-workers envious.



2 LB Lean Thick Beef Sirloin Steak cut in chunks
1 TBS Olive Oil
3 Cloves Garlic Minced
2 Cups Diced Onion
1 Tablespoons Chili Peppers
1/4 Cup Teriyaki Sauce
2 TBS Soy Sauce
Salt and Pepper to taste
2 Cups Water
3 Cups Bow Tie Pasta (Uncooked)
3 Cups Broccoli chopped



Brown beef in olive oil.  Slowly add garlic, onion and peppers allowing to blend well with meat, tender but not overcooked.  Add the peppers and stir in vigorously with Teriyaki and Soy Sauce.  Season with salt and pepper to taste.  Add water and pasta allowing to lightly simmer for 25 minutes, or until pasta is done.  Last 5 minutes of cooking stir in broccoli so it remains firm, but tender.
