Steak & Peppers Episode
Bold, savory, and elevated! In this step-by-step audio cook-along, Chef Riq (The Blind Chef) demonstrates how to sear tender strips of steak, toss them with sweet onions and crisp peppers, and finish the dish with a luxurious Demi-Glace—a reduction of brown stock and Espagnole that adds rich depth and restaurant-level flavor.
Allergy-friendly: Gluten-free tamari or plant-based demi-glace options make this dish suitable for a wider range of eaters.
Nutrition boost: Lean steak provides protein and iron, peppers add vitamin C and antioxidants, and the demi-glace ties it all together with flavor and finesse.
Tactile tips: Learn how to feel steak doneness by touch, listen for peppers as they sizzle and soften, and recognize when your sauce has reduced to silky perfection.
This dish is comfort food with a fine-dining twist—proof that Cooking Without Limits means flavor and confidence in every bite.
