This shall be our dinner tomorrow. I'm doing two separate posts. This here is the beefiness for din-din. We will be serving this over quinoa :) It's a much better alternative to rice. I get mine at Winco-HOLY CHEAP batman :)
Let me know whatcha think :)
Whatcha need:
1 pound top sirloin or chuck steaks (about 1/2 inch thick), trimmed (or if you're cheap like me, just some stewing meat will do)
1 large garlic clove, minced (of 2 tbps of the minced stuff from Costco)
Olive oil, grapeseed oil, or canola oil *take your pick*
2 medium bell peppers, one red, one green, sliced into 1/4-inch strips
1/2 yellow onion, thinly sliced lengthwise (root to top)
A dozen cherry tomatoes, cut in half, or one large tomato, roughly chopped
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Whatcha do:
Season the steaks with salt and pepper and rub minced garlic over them, both sides. Place the steaks between two sheets of plastic wrap. With a meat pounder, pound the steaks to a 1/4 inch thickness. Let the steaks sit for 10 minutes to absorb the flavor of the garlic. Then cut them across the grain in 1/2-inch wide strips. *Cheap method-put the stewing beef, salt, pepper, and garlic in plastic baggie. "Rub" the garlic into the beef and let set for 10 mins.* While the steak is sitting, heat 2 Tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok on medium high to high heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, cook, stirring, until just barely tender, about 1-2 minutes. Add the tomatoes and cook for another minute. Remove the vegetables from the pan to a bowl and keep warm. Heat an additional 2 Tbsp of oil in the skillet on medium high to high heat, until the oil is shimmering, but not smoking. Add the strips of beef let the beef brown initially, without stirring, but as soon as it is brown on at least one side, then stir. Cook for no more than a minute (for rare). I do it for like 3-4 mins. I hate raw meat. Add the vegetables and Worcestershire and cook for a half minute longer, stirring. Remove from heat.
Serve alone (low carb), or with steamed rice OR Quinoa
