Ingredients

• 1 lb steak (such as ribeye or sirloin)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 4 slices bacon
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 medium carrots, sliced
• 2 celery stalks, sliced
• 1 medium zucchini, sliced
• 6 cups beef broth
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 6 oz dry noodles (e.g., egg noodles or ramen)
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Season the steak with salt and black pepper on both sides.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, or until a crust forms. Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest. Once cooled slightly, slice into thin strips and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate, reserving the bacon grease in the skillet. Crumble the bacon once cooled and set aside for garnish.

Step 4

In a large pot, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 6

Stir in the carrots and celery, cooking for 3-4 minutes until they begin to soften.

Step 7

Add the sliced zucchini and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Step 8

Pour in the beef broth and soy sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

Step 9

Add the dry noodles to the pot and cook according to the package instructions, usually 6-8 minutes, or until the noodles are tender.

Step 10

Add the sliced steak to the soup and stir to warm through, about 1-2 minutes.

Step 11

Taste the soup and adjust seasoning with additional salt or soy sauce, if needed.

Step 12

Ladle the soup into serving bowls and garnish with crumbled bacon and fresh parsley (if using). Serve hot and enjoy!
