EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Use any combo of bell peppers for added color.

This slow cooker version has the same pretty color as a stir-fry Pepper Steak. Stirring in the tomatoes at the end helps keep their shape and texture.

Garlic and gingerroot can be purchased chopped in jars. Use 1/2 teaspoon chopped garlic when a recipe calls for a clove of garlic. Store jarred garlic and gingerroot in the refrigerator.

Reduced-sodium soy sauce can be used to trim the sodium.

Just one question. This recipe has you mixing and adding the cornstarch and water at two different times. Which one is it?? This is my first time making this, and I've already added it at the beginning now, and I have a feeling that's not where it goes. Bummer. Now I feel as though I have wasted all of my ingredients.
