  • 2 Meanwhile, heat oil in 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Cook beef and onion in oil about 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until beef is brown and onion is tender. Stir in cooked rice mixture, pea pods, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.

EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

You can use fresh or frozen peas instead of snap peas.

All the prep work can be done ahead of time and the ingredients wrapped in plastic and refrigerated. Cut carrots and wrap separately. Cut and wrap beef and onion together.

Add slices of provolone cheese over the top of the skillet after the pea pods are done. Remove skillet from the heat, and cover and let stand 1 to 2 minutes or until the cheese is melted.

it was pretty good and my 4yr old loved it. I would do less of the Italian seasoning next time. And we added a splash of soy sauce. Would definitely make again. seasoned meat when i while i was cooking it. Sliced meat thin it was yum!

We love it and I have to say, I think it is one of my favorite things I've ever made. I like to add lime juice to give a bit more flavoring.

The steak tasted kind of bland, it should be marinated for more flavor.

why do you suggest using a round steak that has not been marinaded? Don't you think it would be really tough?
