The Essential Ingredients
- Top Sirloin Steak: A versatile, lean cut that delivers big flavor and tenderness. It’s great for grilling, roasting, and pan searing. It comes from the upper portion of the sirloin, so it’s a great balance of leanness and flavor.
- Bell Peppers: Named after the ‘bell’ shape they resemble, you may also see these called sweet peppers. They come in a variety of colors and lend a mild flavor and crisp texture to dishes.
- Portobello Mushroom: This mushroom varietal is large and meaty with a rich, earthy flavor. They are ideal for grilling, roasting or stuffing.
- Garlic: A flavorful bulb that is related to the onion family. It has a strong aroma (that fills your kitchen), taste that enhances your dish and is known for its versatility.
- Linguine Pasta: A long flat noodle similar to fettuccine but narrower. It is traditionally made from durum wheat and water. Because of its shape, it’s a great choice for holding sauces.
