I found this recipe on Allrecipes a while ago, and based on the reviews found there, made it into a very tasty dish. The main thing is to marinate the meat in a purchased southwest-flavored marinade for 4-24 hours. Otherwise the meal will be quite flavorless. Also cut your meat very very thin

to respond to anne - the pasta cooks in the 2 cans of broth that are added at the end of step 1.

I really enjoyed the flavors of the broth and peppers. It came together perfectly. I recommend marinating the meat for awhile because the meat was rather flavorless, but the overall beauty and taste of the dish made me forget about it quickly.

I am planning to make this stew, but wouldn't you have to cook the pasta first?
