Paleo Leap Pepper Steak

Submitted by Jordan W.

"This recipe is a real celebration of all things pepper: the steak is first marinated in a peppery vinaigrette, and then stir-fried with sweet pepper slices and Asian-inspired spices to create a zippy, tingly stir-fry with pleasantly crunchy vegetables complementing the thin strips of meat."
