Instructions
In a large skillet, cook steak over medium-high heat, in 1 tablespoon oil until meat is no longer pink; drain.
In the same skillet, saute peppers in remaining oil for 2 minutes or until tender. Stir in the zucchini, onion and garlic; cook and stir 2 minutes longer.
Add the peas, mushrooms and water chestnuts.
Saute the vegetables for 2 minutes or until tender.
Return beef to the skillet.
Combine the cornstarch, broth and soy sauce until smooth; gradually stir into skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir
Steak works really well with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir. After all, beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner steaks go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier steaks can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. The La Jota Howell Mountain Merlot with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 99 dollars per bottle.
