We really enjoyed this recipe! I love the peppery rub that gives an otherwise kind of bland piece of meat a nice flavor. Add the onions on top and you've got a great dish! Made for ZWT5 for Ali Baba Babes -
This was good and easy to make. I followed the recipe as written other then I forgot the vinegar at the end. After I sliced up the steak I cooked mine in the onion mixture a bit longer and let it sit a bit to give it all more flavor. We all enjoyed this. -
This was very good, although i would prefer more flavor for the onions, so I think I would try making a bit more of the rub and cook it with the onions next time. Made for the Epicurean Queens ZWT5: Caribbean. -
This was great tasting & easy to make. I used sirloin because I had one in the freezer that needed to be used. I also think that with the short cooking time, the round steak might have been tough. The sirloin worked out great, with a flavor that cried out to be eaten again. We will oblige it too. Served this with recipe#77821 for a great tasting meal. Thanks again Kim127 for a great recipe. Made for ZWT5. -
Yum, made this for 2. Served with Recipe #155037. I think I like a better cut of meat than what we had, but doesn't take away from the simple and ease of this recipe. Thank you for posting. Made for ZWT 5.
