EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Thinly sliced chicken can be used instead of the beef.

Buy beef already sliced from the meat department, or ask the butcher to slice it for you.

I thought this was delicious and so did my husband. I will agree it has the possibility of being bland. Definitely use the flavored tomatoes and add some of your won spices. I upped the garlic, salt, pepper and added oregno, italian seasoning, parsley, and basil. It doesn't have a STRONG flavor but it has a really nice, light, yummy flavor. And the stir fry beef is way better than using hamburger. Gives it lots of texture and more flavor. Will definitely make again.

I thought this was just ok. Could have used a bit more flavor. I used chicken and plain diced tomatoes because that's what I had. But I was looking for something different to do with the pepper and onion stir-fry mixture (which I also already had on hand), and this fit the bill. I'll try it again using beef instead of chicken, which should give it a bit more flavor, and I'll use the seasoned tomatoes. I also think a bit of cheese melted on top would be just right for this dish.
