If you are busy like me but you want to serve your family a wholesome meal that can be on the table in under 45 minutes and can be cooked in one pot, this recipe is for you.
Just pick up Knorr One Skillet Meals Steak and Peppers with Brown Rice and Quinoa Meal Starter packet at Kroger while you are shopping in the rice or pasta aisle then grab a nice sirloin steak along with some onions, peppers, and olive oil and you'll be set to make this wonderful dinner.
The Knorr meal starter features responsibly grown brown rice and quinoa that is perfectly seasoned with herbs and spices which pairs brilliantly with steak, peppers, and onions. There are no artificial flavors and no colors from artificial sources in Knorr One Skillet Meals which means you can feel good about serving this dinner to your family.

My husband was hesitant to try the meal once I told him it had quinoa in it, but after he took a small bite directly from the skillet, he grabbed a bowl filled it up, sat down, and enjoyed every bite.
The next day he asked me to heat up the leftovers and told me to definitely make this one-pot meal again. He enjoyed it just as much as the Lemon Chicken and Barley meal I prepared a few weeks ago, using another Knorr One Skillet Meal.
The beauty of these new Knorr One Skillet Meal Starters is that you cook your entire dinner, which is loaded with protein, vegetables, and ancient grains, all in one skillet. The prep time for the Steak and Peppers with Brown Rice and Quinoa was about 15 minutes and the whole meal is ready in about 40 minutes.

- The package instructs you to slice a sirloin steak thinly, season with salt and pepper then cook in 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a 12-inch non-stick skillet set over medium-high heat for about 3 minutes.
- We like to enjoy our steak cooked rare or at the most medium-rare, so I chose to cook the sirloin whole instead. That way I'd get a nice brown exterior and rare interior when I sliced it after it was cooked.
- I seared both sides of the steak in a hot skillet and cooked it to 130° Fahrenheit.
- I removed the steak from the pan, tented it with tin foil, and allowed it to rest while I finished prepping the meal, then sliced it just before tossing it into the skillet with the cooked brown rice and quinoa.
- We like to enjoy our steak cooked rare or at the most medium-rare, so I chose to cook the sirloin whole instead. That way I'd get a nice brown exterior and rare interior when I sliced it after it was cooked.
- Slice one green and one red bell pepper and slice one onion.
- Cook the peppers and onions in the skillet in a tablespoon of oil until tender.
- You may notice in the pictures, that there are no sliced onions in my skillet. I actually used a small amount of onion, which I chopped, because my husband won't eat anything with big pieces of onion in it.
- Once the peppers and onions are cooked to your liking, remove them from the pan.

- Add one more tablespoon of olive oil along with 2 cups water and the contents of the Knorr One Skillet Meals Steak & Peppers with Brown Rice & Quinoa Meal Starter to the hot skillet.
- Bring it to a boil then reduce the heat and let it simmer.
- You'll know the brown rice and quinoa are done when almost all of the water has evaporated.
- Make sure you use a nice tight lid on your skillet and keep it on the pan for at least 20 minutes. This will keep all the steam inside and cook the ancient grains properly. The cooking time on the package states 22 minutes and I found it was perfectly cooked at that time.
- Toss in the slices of sirloin steak and the peppers and onions, cover the skillet, remove from the heat, and let rest for 2 minutes to heat through.
- Then enjoy!
