• 1 1/2 lb. top round or sirloin steak (boneless)
• 2 Tbsp. oil
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 c. beef broth (bouillon, canned and undiluted)
• 1 c. green bell pepper, cored, seeded and cut into thin strips
• 1 c. celery, thinly sliced
• 1/4 c. onion, thinly sliced
• 1/2 c. Coca-Cola
• 2 medium ripe tomatoes
• 2 1/2 Tbsp. cornstarch
• 1/4 c. Coca-Cola
• 1 Tbsp. soy sauce
• rice, cooked and hot

1. Trim all fat from the meat and cut into pencil-thin strips. In a deep skillet or Dutch oven, heat oil, garlic and salt.
2. Add the meat and brown over high heat, about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally with a fork.
3. Add the beef broth.
4. Cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until the meat is fork-tender.
5. Stir in the green pepper strips, celery, onion and 1/2 cup of Coca-Cola. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes.
6. Do not overcook; the vegetables should be tender-crisp.
7. Peel the tomatoes; cut into wedges and gently stir into meat.
