Easily The Best Jerk Pepper Steak Stir Fry| Jamaican Style
I’ve never been a steak eater like that. I was never adventurous when I went to restaurants. But my husband quickly took me out of my comfort zone and I was trying all kinds of food that I would NEVER normally try. Is anyone like this? stuck in eating the same stuff repeatedly and rarely trying new things? This Pepper Steak Recipe is fantastic we love steak.
So we had recently just gone to the Cheesecake Factory for a friend’s birthday. And I was in a pickle about what I wanted to order and I thought “Wow I’ve tried all the safe foods already.” I was thinking to myself “I really need to step outside of the box, In my mind I was like “I was thinking ‘ I’m gonna get this steak .”So I asked the waitress what would she recommend, and she said steak. So I knew it was meant to be lol. And when I tried it I was blown away by how yummy, tender, and juicy the steak was. From then we started to perfect this Pepper Steak recipe.

Despite its name pepper steak is not a type of meat. In fact, it’s just the name of the dish it contains peppers and steak. The steak often used in pepper steak dishes is flank, sirloin, or round steak.
Why is my pepper steak tough?
Pepper steak can easily get tough! The more a muscle is used, the tougher the meat tends to be.
Where did pepper steak originate?
Pepper steak originated in China it is a popular stir-fried Chinese American dish that has thinly sliced steak pieces that are stir-fried to a beautiful, juicy texture and cooked with a savory sauce along with red and green bell peppers. But Jerk Tavern puts a Jamaican spin on everything. And in Jamaica, we cook pepper steak with a jerk seasoning. When some of the Chinese migrated to Jamaica they brought many cuisines that we Jamaicans put our spin on.
