Ingredients

6 dry-packed sun-dried tomatoes


1 lb (500 g) Beef Stir-fry Strips or Beef Grilling Steak, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) long strips, ⅛-inch (3 mm) thick


3 cloves garlic, minced


½ small red onion, sliced


1 medium zucchini, sliced


4 fresh plum tomatoes, chopped


½ cup (125 mL) chopped fresh basil (or 1-½ tsp/7 mL dried basil)


¼ tsp (1 mL) Salt and pepper


12 oz (375 g) dry penne pasta, cooked (about 4 cups/1 L)


Freshly grated Parmesan cheese (optional)

Directions

Cover dried tomatoes with boiling water in bowl; let stand for 5 minutes. Drain and cut into strips.
Stir-fry beef strips and garlic in 2 batches, 1 minute per side, in large deep lightly oiled non-stick skillet over high heat until beef is browned but still pink inside. Remove from pan. In same skillet, cook sun-dried tomatoes, onion and zucchini over medium-high heat until softened, about 2 minutes.
Add chopped tomatoes; stir-fry for 2 minutes. Return beef with juices to skillet along with basil and salt and pepper to taste; mix well and heat through briefly. Toss with hot cooked pasta. Serve immediately with Parmesan cheese, if desired.
