Sweet and Spicy Steak & Onions

Holy Moly!  This is such a great recipe!  Trust me, and try it immediately!  You won't be sorry, and if your husband is anything like mine neither will he!

Sweet and Spicy Steak & Onions
Breakfast steaks - enough for your family, we usually get 3
1 T. butter
1/2 sweet onion, thinly sliced
2 T. brown sugar
2 tsp. hot chili powder

*Melt butter in a large, nonstick skillet over medium heat.  Add onions; cook for 5 to 6 minutes until crisp-tender.  Season with salt and pepper if desired.  Remove from skillet and set aside.
*Combine brown sugar and chili powder; press into steaks.
*Place steaks in skillet over medium heat and cook until done, turning just once (breakfast steaks cook fast!  Maybe 5 minutes!)  Remove steaks, but keep warm. 
*Return onions to skillet.  Cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes until heated through and browned bits from the bottom of the pan are dissolved. 
*Serve steaks with onions on top.

I serve this with cottage fried potatoes, a salad, and maybe some baked beans.  It's delicious, and my family eats it up!  The next time we make it, I'll have to take pictures to post.

  1. PS - this is a CHEAP meal! The steaks usually run me a total of $3 to $4 and the rest of the ingredients I already have on hand. Factor in the potatoes, salad, and/or beans, and you have a complete meal for 4 people for about $6 TOTAL!!
