Pour the olive oil into a large pot. Dice the zucchini, bell peppers, and tomatoes and add them to the pot. You can also peel the tomatoes beforehand. To do this, make a cross-shaped incision and briefly pour boiling water over them, then peel off the skin. Chop the garlic cloves very finely or press them through a garlic press directly into the pot. Then cut the cold steaks into short strips. The steaks should be cooked medium to well done. Heat the contents of the pot and toss gently. It depends on your individual preference whether you prefer the vegetables firm to the bite or a little softer. Then add the meat to the pot and heat briefly. Once everything is cooked to your liking, add the drained spaghetti and herbs to the pot, season with salt, pepper, and chili peppers, and mix well. If the spaghetti is cold, for example, from the day before, cook for a little longer. Be careful with the chili peppers, as the heat will come through later. Tips: In my opinion, it’s the tomatoes that make the meat so tender when eaten. The more vegetables you add, the juicier the dish will be. For vegetarians, you can of course leave out the meat. You can also either reduce or increase the amount of spaghetti. If the dish is still a bit dry, you can add a little olive oil while seasoning. It doesn’t taste greasy, and olive oil is healthy and adds a certain flavor to the dish. The steak strips can also be substituted for fried chicken breast fillets or pork minute steaks.
