**SERVES 6**

**Make Ahead**

Make a hearty beef pot pie!
Spoon leftover steak
mixture into a prepared
pie crust; cover with second
crust and bake at 350°F for
about 20 minutes.

**VARIATION**

Chicken strips
make a great
alternative if you
are watching your
red meat intake.

**1** Cut steak into strips.
Heat 3 tablespoons
butter in a large skillet
over medium heat. Add
mushrooms and onion;
sauté until tender, about
2 minutes. Remove with
a slotted spoon.

**2** Add remaining butter
to skillet. Add steak.
Sauté for 5 minutes or
until browned on all sides.
Add chili sauce. Simmer,
covered, for 10 minutes or
until meat is tender.

**3** Blend flour with cold
water. Stir into skillet.
Cook, stirring continually,
until mixture comes to a
boil, about 5 minutes.
Reduce heat; return
mushrooms and onion
to skillet.

**4** Add green beans to
skillet; mix well. Heat
to serving temperature; do
not boil. Serve over hot
buttered noodles.

Make It Quicker

• Look for frozen
prechopped onions in
the freezer section of
most supermarkets.
Frozen onions require
no preparation and
keep up to a year in
the freezer.
