This dish is deceivingly delicous!!! When I told my boyfriend I was making it for dinner he wasn't too sure about pasta sauce over steak but after he tried it he couldn't believe the unique taste it had. The juices from the steak along with the wine totally change the flavor of the pasta sauce (I used chunky mushroom). I did cut the pasta sauce down to 1 1/2 cups and sauteed the garlic with the onions, and served it over garlic mashed potatoes as suggested. It was WONDERFUL!! Thanks for the great recipe!

This recipe is delicious. I serve it frequently over garlic mashed potatoes. Sometimes for a quick meal, I evev use the instant garlic mashed. The sauce has a wonderful flavor that transforms itself and tastes nothing like the original pasta sauce. I also was worried that it would taste like "spaghetti sauce with steak strips", but it doesn't. It's a great recipe and part of our monthly rotation.

I can't say enough good things about this recipe. Not only was it delicious it was so simple to put together. I can see myself making this at least two or three times a month. Thank you SO much for sharing this!

Wonderful recipe! The wine is key, I think, in making this not taste like pasta sauce on beef. I did mine in the crockpot (with no precooking) and it tasted wonderful. Served over a garlic mashed cauliflower/potato combo with steamed green beans on the side.

This is awesome when served on top garlic mashed potatoes; I wouldn't have it any other way! I've never had this turn out tasting like spaghetti sauce, and always use Ragu Chunky with Mushrooms. Sometimes I add mushrooms too, after the onions start to caramelize. If you find this tasting like spaghetti sauce, as some reviewers have experienced, try adding in a beef bullion cube as it simmers... also stay away from basil-rich sauces!

An absolutely wonderful recipe!

Decent, but not great. I did not serve it with the potatoes, as suggested but with noodles. This MAY have contributed to it tasting like spaghetti with a different type of meat. But really, I don't think the potatoes would have made that much of a difference. We did like this, but honestly, with the cheaper price of ground beef, I think I may stick with that instead of the expensive steak.

Great recipe, definitely a keeper! Watch cooking time though; I used thin slices and I like med rare steak so I cut the sauteeing and simmering time by about half. Thanks Lanelle for a simple and delicious recipe!

This meal was awesome. i made it over garlic mashed potatoes and served with french bread (with balsamic vinegar/olive oil for dipping). One of the best meals i've had

I love this recipe! My kids and husband like it too. Sometimes I use chicken instead of beef. I will take boneless breasts, and cut them in strips, like you would do the meat. I do let it simmer a little bit longer, as chicken takes longer to cook. I usually serve over egg noodles. Chicken or beef, this recipe is really good.

Made this in a big hurry one night. The wife and I were truly surprised at how good it was! We didn't use store bought pasta sauce though ...rather made our own batch using tomato sauce and spices. Will definitely make this again!

Absolutely amazing! I made this with garlic mashed potatoes instead of traditional spaghetti and meatballs! I will definitely be making this again!

Boyfriend surprised me with this fantastic romantic dinner. the garlic/onion/wine taste combination is to die for, and garlic mashed potatoes are the perfect complement. be very careful about not overcooking the steak, but i'm going to make this for his mother the next time she's over!
