"Sometimes I like to marinade the steak and seasonings the night before," writes LaDonna Reed of Ponca City, Oklahoma. This surprisingly spicy pepper steak is bursting with southwestern flair.

Amazingly simple dish to prepare and tastes AWESOME! The only change I made was to use only half a can of Rotel, still delivered quite a kick. Next time though I will cut back on the cornstarch, 2 TBLS was a bit much, very thick, I added some pasta water from the egg noodles. Over all it was an awesome dish, one I will definitely make again. Thank you LaDonna!
