Ingredients
  • 1 lb. sirloin steak cut in thin slices
  • Salt and pepper
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 garlic cloves finely diced
  • 1 red onion cut in thick slices
  • 2 tomatoes cut in thick slices
  • 1 seeded and ribbed aji amarillo chili pepper cut in thin slices (you can substitute with 1 tablespoon of aji­ amarillo paste, or with any chili pepper you can find)
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
  • ½ cup fresh cilantro, chopped
  • 2 cups French fries
  • White rice as a side dish
Instructions
  1. *Season the sirloin steak with salt and pepper.
  2. *Put a wok or a pan over very high heat. Add the oil and saute the meat, a few slices at a time so they don't steam but remain golden instead (about 10 minutes, depending on how strong the flame is).
  3. *Add the garlic, onion, tomato, chili pepper, and stir for a couple of minutes. Add the soy sauce and vinegar in the sides of the pan and mix everything. Season with more salt and pepper.
  4. *Take off the heat, add chopped cilantro and serve at once with French fries and white rice.
