Our family loves this recipe, which my mom learned from a German woman when we lived in Germany. In this dish, you can swap out the cube steaks for tenderized veal.

Reviews
Made it with sweet Italian Sausage
We loved it. Very tasty
We LOVE this dish. We use turkey sausage instead of chorizo and we add in chopped onion as well. It’s now a HUGE staple in my house. Can’t get enough of it! And we use the leftover stuffing stuff for burritos the next day! Love it!!
I’m not one to really eat bell peppers but I’m trying to incorporate more veggies. I made this recipe and I’m very happy. I will make again.
I added garlic to the onions and sautéed them together. Wasn’t able to get a pic, had them on the counter covered up, left the house and when I got home everybody had already eaten them! So they musta been good!
Easy to make, tasted great! Spice it up with green chilis as needed.
Great recipe, only changes I made were that I used mild Italian sausage instead of chorizo because I could get any at the time. I also added half a chopped sweet onion and 2 cloves of fresh minced garlic, some sea salt and pepper. But great recipe and very flavour full and I will definitely be making this again!
I loved this so much!! Didn’t change a thing and it was perfect!
I have actually made this several times I usually incorporate adobo peppers, pinto beans, corn, as well as tomatillos to balance out the spice. I also use this to make stuffed cabbage as well. One of the family favorites
It was really good something kinda new for us to eat but it was great. Definitely adding this on the menu.
