This Southwestern Beef Steak & Kidney Beans recipe is much like having a stir-fry without the complicated cooking urgency that a stir-fry demands. For dinner in 20 minutes, start by making rice. As it cooks, you can get everything else made and ready to serve.

 1 tsp (5 mL) Cajun spice
 1 tsp (5 mL) ground cumin
 ¼ tsp (1 mL) salt
 ¼ tsp (1 mL) hot pepper flakes
 1 lb (0.45 kg) Beef Minute Steak (or thin cut Grilling Steak)
 2 tbsp (30 mL) olive oil
 ½ cup (125 mL) chopped red onion
 1 sweet red pepper, diced
 ½ cup (125 mL) salsa
 ½ cup (125 mL) frozen corn
 ⅓ cup (75 mL) tomato ketchup
 19 oz (540 mL) can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
 Lime Wedges
1

Combine Cajun spice, cumin, salt and pepper flakes in small bowl. Set aside half of mixture. Sprinkle both sides of steak with remaining mixture.

2

Heat half of the oil in non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook steak about 8 minutes, turning at least twice, for medium-rare doneness 145°F(63°C). Remove to plate; cover loosely with foil. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing thinly across the grain.

3

Meanwhile, reduce heat to medium; add remaining oil. Cook onion, red pepper and reserved spice mixture, cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 4 minutes. Add salsa, corn, ketchup and beans; heat through, about 4 minutes. Toss with steak slices; serve with squeeze of lime.
