Posted: Wed, Feb 27, 2013 : 6 a.m.

You could serve this over rice, and it would be lovely. It would be wonderful stuffed into a pita. But if you're eating a low-carb diet, this is fabulous all on its own, too. And for those who don't want the meat, just double the peppers.

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 small red onion, halved, sliced
  • 1 small red pepper, quartered, sliced
  • 1 small orange pepper, quartered, sliced
  • 1 pound thin-cut beef steaks, sliced
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
  • juice of 1 small lemon
  • 3 cups baby spinach leaves
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese

Directions

Heat the oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the onion and peppers; saute for 5 minutes until vegetables are tender.Add beef, lower heat to medium, and saute just until meat is thoroughly browned. Add oregano, salt and lemon juice; cook for 1 minute. Add spinach and cook just until wilted.  Remove from heat, place onto a serving dish, and sprinkle with Feta.

Serves 2-4.
