Cut up steak into srtrips and sprinkle garlic salt on all sides. Place in skillet with olive oil until brown. Mix the soy sauce and worchestershire sauce together and place cooked meat into this mixture, to set while you are cooking the rest. Add sliced peppers and mushrooms to skillet and saute them until desired tenderness. In seperate pot bring water and beef broth to a boil and add rice. Let cook until rice is done and set to side. When peppers and rice are done. Place some rice on a plate and top with the peppers and steak. And enjoy this guys, it is so good...
