This colorful, flavorful flank steak is easy and quick to make once it comes out of the marinade. The citrusy orange marinade gives the beef flavor while also helping to tenderize it. Some of the marinade is reserved to cook with the peppers, and then it’s all served over white rice, although you could use brown rice, if you prefer. Flank steak is a lean, versatile cut of beef that works well in sautéed dishes like this one. Just be sure to pat the meat dry in order to get a nice sear on it, and then cut it against the grain for the most tender results. This recipe can easily be multiplied. Store the extra servings in individual airtight containers for tasty take-to-work meals.
