Ingredients:
- 2 beef round tip steaks

- 1 bell pepper
- 1 onion
- 2 tomatoes
- 6 mushrooms
- 3 cloves garlic
- 5 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 package bow tie pasta
Instructions:
| Step | Instructions |
|---|---|
| 1 | Begin by cutting the beef round tip steaks into bite-size pieces. |
| 2 | Place the beef pieces in a bowl and add 8 ounces of marinade. Ensure the marinade coats the beef evenly. |
| 3 | Mix the beef and marinade well, then refrigerate for 30 minutes to an hour, allowing the flavors to meld together. |
| 4 | After marinating, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Ensure the skillet is adequately heated before proceeding. |
| 5 | Add the marinated beef to the hot skillet and cook until it reaches your desired level of doneness. |
| 6 | While the beef is cooking, sauté the onions and garlic in the skillet until they become fragrant and translucent. |
| 7 | Next, add the bell peppers and zucchinis to the skillet, sautéing them until they are softened but still retain a crisp texture. |
| 8 | Finally, add the mushrooms to the skillet and sauté them until they are tender and golden brown. |
| 9 | Meanwhile, prepare the tomatoes by cutting them and removing the seeds. Dice the tomatoes into small pieces. |
| 10 | Once all the vegetables are sautéed to perfection, mix them together in the skillet, keeping them warm over low heat. |
| 11 | In a separate pot, boil the bow tie pasta until it reaches your desired level of softness. |
| 12 | Once the pasta is cooked, strain it and transfer it to a large bowl. Toss the pasta with 3 tablespoons of olive oil to prevent sticking. |
| 13 | Add the cooked beef and sautéed vegetables to the bowl of pasta, tossing everything together until well combined. |
| 14 | As you toss the ingredients, gradually add the remaining 4 ounces of marinade to enhance the flavors and moisture of the dish. |
| 15 | Once everything is thoroughly mixed, serve the Mediterranean Garlic Herb Beef and Pasta hot, garnished with fresh herbs if desired. |
Enjoy your flavorful journey through the Mediterranean with this delectable dish! 🍽️
