I liked this recipe, but I prefer other styles of cooking this. As I said, I liked this, but my son really didn't care for it. It cooks up quick, which is a bonus :)! But the "sauce" once you pour it into the skillet, evaporates before you have a chance to reduce it. I would take the skillet off the heat for a while before adding the sauce to try and save a little "juice" for the meat. I enjoyed a different taste for minute steak other than country fried steak. I had black beans (very well cooked) with these, and they actually accentuated the taste of these minute steaks. Surprisingly, I have leftovers (very rare, with a 17 year old son), and I think they will be good as a sandwich. Made for PRMR Tag.
