Text Box: Pepper Steak Packets From
Quick & Easy Foil Packet Meals

4 sheets aluminum foil (12 X 18-inches each)
1 pound boneless beef sirloin steak, 1/2-inch thick
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup green bell pepper strips
1 cup red bell pepper strips
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
Hot cooked rice

Preheat oven to 450º or preheat grill to medium-high.

Cut steak lengthwise in half and then crosswise into 1/8” thick strips and sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and black pepper. Combine steak strips, pepper strips and onion with teriyaki sauce. 

Place one-fourth of the mixture in the center of each sheet of foil.

Bring up foil sides. Double fold top and ends to seal packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Bake 13-15minutes on a cookie sheet in oven or grill 7-9 minutes in covered grill.

Serve over cooked rice.

Aluminum foil is one of the most versatile of all food wrapping materials. Part of its appeal lies in the fact that it can withstand both heat and cold—freezer to oven.

 

Reynolds Wrap® Aluminum Foil for home use was introduced in 1947, but wasn’t widely used until the 1950s. Since metal was no longer in short supply after World War II, homemakers were encouraged to use it for cooking, wrapping and storing food.

 

Outdoor grilling was also a popular event during this decade, so innovative cooks developed a method for individual meals, wrapped in foil packets and cooked on the grill or in the oven.

 

These “packet meals” are still popular today because of their convenience. Each of the 20 recipes in this booklet makes four individually wrapped meals that you bake in the oven, and many of the recipes can also be cooked on the grill.

 

You can store the unused, cooked packets in the refrigerator for several days or in the freezer for up to four weeks. Then, just reheat and enjoy when you need them.

 

They are perfect for families on the go, especially when family members need to eat at different times; or for couples or singles who like the convenience of preparing their meals ahead of time for no-fuss after-work dinners.
