- 3/4 cup white rice
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 teaspoon beef bouillon granules
- 3/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1/4 cup water
- 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons spaghetti sauce
- 1 tablespoon steak sauce
- 1 tablespoon salsa picante
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless beef sirloin steak, cut into serving size pieces
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 onion, thinly sliced
- 4 mild yellow pepper rings, drained
- Bring the rice and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Put the cooked rice into a large serving bowl.
- While the rice cooks, bring beef bouillon and 3/4 cup water to a boil in a saucepan; cook until the bouillon dissolves completely. Whisk the cornstarch and 1/4 cup water together in a small bowl until smooth; stir the red wine vinegar, spaghetti sauce, steak sauce, salsa picante, brown sugar, and ginger into the cornstarch mixture; pour the resulting sauce into the bouillon and water. Simmer until hot, about 5 minutes.
- Melt the butter with the soy sauce in a large skillet over medium heat; cook the beef in the melted butter mixture until it begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Pour the sauce from the saucepan into the skillet; season with the garlic powder, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil; lower heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is thick and sticks to the beef, 20 to 30 minutes.
- Pour the skillet mixture over the rice. Cook the onion and pepper rings in the skillet until softened, 5 to 7 minutes; scrape the onions, peppers, and remaining juices onto the beef and rice to serve.
