This is good and really easy! If your sauce tastes too tomatoey, add a bit more soy and garlic salt. I also added chopped garlic, onion, and red bell pepper to the mix. Good stuff!

This was really easy and good to make. I did make 2 changes to the recipe. I grilled the steak first to give it that flavor. then put in the the pan with the other ingredients. I used red wine vinegar instead of regular vinegar. it turned out great and spicy. if you don't like the tomato flavor split the measurement in 1/2. Thanks for sharing.

I marinated the beef strips in the soy sauce, vinegar, garlic powder and crushed red pepper mixture for around 30 mins and stir-fried it in a skillet. After it is almost done, I poured in the tomato soup and the rest of the marinade. It is really easy to prepare and the taste is fine. I used a black rice vinegar and that definitely intensified the taste of the dish. Overall a tasty dish although I suspect that leaving out the tomato soup might result in just as tasty a dish, if not better.

This had really good flavor. didn't take long at all. I was surprised that the tomato soup didn't ruin it. it wasn't too tomato-y. it was a bit spicy but not so much to burn one's mouth. my husband even had seconds, and he's picky.

I've made this twice now, and the second time (with modifications) was definitely better. I didn't cook the beef until the juices evaporated, because last time it turned out hard and dry. I added a bit of onion powder and just a dash of ginger. Aside from overcooking the beef the first time around, this recipe is wonderful! I'll be making this again for sure!

I have to admit, I wasn't really sure what to expect w/tomato soup in this recipe. I pleased to announce, it works; it really works! I did choose to marinate my beef strips in some soy sauce, white vinegar, lemon juice, and garlic all day while I was at work. I also added a splash of sesame oil to my canola oil to cook the beef. To make this even easier, I used Uncle Ben's microwavable pouch brown rice (90 seconds!). What a great weeknight meal; this will be used again at the LTH house. DISCLAIMER: We don't typically eat Chinese foods "out", so I can't make any comparisons to your favorite local take out joint.

Really simple to make, and yummy. I have food allergies, so Chinese takeout is not an option. It fixed my Chinese food craving. I will say I liked it better the next day re-heated.

This was a very tasty, easy recipe, although I did make some changes: I added more vegetables (1/2 white onion, 1/2 red bell pepper, 1/4 lb sliced mushrooms), reduced the vegetable oil and the condensed soup each by half, replaced the garlic powder with several minced fresh cloves, and replaced the crushed red pepper with a tablespoon of Huy Fong chili garlic sauce. I also cooked the onion and garlic briefly before adding the meat to the pan. It turned out nicely spicy and flavorful with these changes, and the tomato soup/vinegar mixture added a nice amount of tangy and sweet to offset all the chili garlic sauce. I also served it with half the proscribed amount of brown rice to make it lower calorie and more diabetic-friendly, along with a side of tangy purple cabbage coleslaw (an edited version of Angie's Dad's Best, a recipe from this site).
