- Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Once heated, add the steak and marinade. Stir and cook until the beef has browned but is still tender. About 3-5 minutes. Remove the steak and set aside but leave the marinade in the skillet.
- To the skillet, add red pepper, red onion, and broccoli florets. Cook on medium high heat for 5-7 minutes or until the vegetables start to soften. You’ll notice a few minutes into cooking, the liquid will start to dissolve and cook off. We’re going to add a sauce to help the vegetables cook longer.
