Too often we think of flank steak only as a vehicle for the grill. Elaine Prenovitz of Norcross shows how it can be used in a delicious stir-fry. She writes, "This is a recipe I modified from 'Reader's Digest Eat Better, Live Better.' You can add green pepper strips and pineapple chunks, if desired. However, we're content with the beef sitting alone on a bed of rice."
