mmm a lovely meal over brown rice! Los of flavour! I didn't have any canned chili but I had a red and a green jalepeno so i used them , they gave it a real nice bite. My steak was sirloin tip, worked very well, nice and tender. We really enjoyed this supper for Sunday dinner and wil be making it again, thanks for sharing!

Yummy yummy yummy!! And I'm not much of a beef eater. This was fantastic! I omitted the bell pepper and used snap peas in addition to green beans (didn't have enough green beans) but just about any vegetable would work. I served this with plain steamed rice, and both hubby and daughter loved it. Score! :)
