I used already cut up steak (like what you use for fajitas) and prepared like a stirfry (cooks meat first of course) and it was really good. It was a lot easier than cooking a large whole steak

This recipe was really good. I did change it up a bit though. I didn't broil the steak ahead of time. What I did was cut the raw meat into strips and then massaged in the spices. Then I cooked it on the stove top for a bit until it was about halfway done. Then I added in all the veggies and garlic to finish sauteeing up with it. At the very end I added a splash of the dressing and let it simmer all together (stirring occasionally) while I finished up the rice I was making for the side. I used fat free italian dressing instead of the balsalmic as well. It tasted perfect. We are using the left overs to make quesadillas tonight!

I used leftover steak and topped with the other ingredients from the recipe. Delicious and light. Will definitely make this again.

This was very good. It was the first time I ever broiled steak. My boyfriend loved it and he doesn't really like green and red peppers.

I have not broiled steak before, so it was a fun experiment. The kraft dressing is delicious! I served it with Shratz and sweet carrots to compliment the spice.
