1
Boil the water in a large cooking pot.
-
2
Add in the table salt and olive oil before it comes to a boil and stir.
-
3
When the water boils, slowly add the pasta and cook uncovered over medium heat until it is tender but not mushy.
-
4
Drain and rinse in cold water.
-
5
Return the rinsed, drained pasta to the cooking pot, cover and set aside.
-
6
In a large skillet or wok (I prefer the latter), heat the peanut oil over high heat.
-
7
Once it is very hot (about 375-degrees F.), toss in the steak pieces, the pepper chunks, and the onion (if using), seasoning them with the kosher salt, black pepper, worcestershire sauce, and Tabasco.
-
8
Do not stir for the first 3 or 4 minutes, then toss the mix, allowing the steak to brown on all sides.
-
9
The pepper chunks (and onions) will get tender and brown slightly too.
-
10
This should take about 12 minutes total.
-
11
Remove the steak/veggie blend to a serving bowl which is lined with paper towels to catch any excess oil.
-
12
Once the steak, peppers, and onions are done, reheat the pasta (I usually do this with each plated portion in the microwave, covering each plate with a wet paper towel).
-
13
Then top each plate of heated pasta with some of the steak and peppers.
-
14
NOTE: This will produce medium well-done steak pieces.
-
15
If you want your steak to be more rare, simply cut the steak into bigger chunks or have your butcher cut the steak even thicker.
