Lomo Saltado (Peruvian Steak Stir-Fry) image

I've never been a big stir-fry guy, but when it comes to lomo saltado, I make an exception. First of all, it's Peruvian--and I love to eat anything Peruvian. But, it's also a stir-fry that features not only meat and vegetables, but also French fries. Serve with steamed white rice and garnish with cilantro, if so desired.

Time 1h50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ¼ pounds top sirloin steak
3 tablespoons soy sauce, divided
1 teaspoon white sugar
6 tablespoons olive oil, divided
1 (16 ounce) package frozen crinkle-cut French fries
1 ½ cups sliced red onion
1 medium orange bell pepper, sliced
1 habanero pepper, seeded and minced
½ cup sliced green onion
kosher salt to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon minced fresh ginger root
4 medium roma (plum) tomato
¼ cup white vinegar
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Slice beef horizontally into 1/4-inch strips and transfer into a mixing bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, and the sugar. Mix well and place in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour; longer is fine.
  • Preheat an oven to 200 degrees F (90 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with a silicone liner (such as Silpat®).
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add French fries and cook until golden and crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to the prepared pan and place in the preheated oven to keep warm.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet over high heat until the oil begins to smoke. Sear the beef strips in 2 or 3 smaller batches, until browned but still pink in places, for 1 to 2 minutes per batch. You don't want to cook the meat all the way through, as it will finish cooking with the vegetables later. As each batch of beef is browned, transfer to a plate or bowl, and reserve.
  • Place the skillet back over high heat, and add remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil. Transfer in red onion, bell pepper, habanero, and green onion, along with a large pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until the onions and peppers just begin to soften, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add garlic and ginger to the pan; cook and stir for 1 minute. Add tomato wedges and cook, stirring, until they begin to soften and start to release their juices, about 3 minutes. Add remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, white vinegar, and the browned beef into the pan, along with any accumulated juices, and stir to combine.
  • Stir cilantro and crispy, cooked French fries into the pan, tossing everything to combine. Taste for salt and adjust if needed. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality beef: Look for flank steak or sirloin steak that is well-marbled and has a deep red color.
  • Slice the beef thinly against the grain: This will help the beef cook quickly and evenly.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, and spices will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: A well-seasoned wok or skillet will help to prevent the beef and vegetables from sticking.
  • Cook the beef and vegetables in batches: Do not overcrowd the wok or skillet, or the beef and vegetables will not cook evenly.
  • Add the sauces and seasonings gradually: Start with a small amount of each sauce and seasoning, and then add more to taste.
  • Serve immediately: Lomo saltado is best served immediately after it is cooked.

Conclusion:

Lomo saltado is a delicious and easy-to-make Peruvian stir-fry dish. It is made with beef, vegetables, and sauces, and is typically served with rice. This dish is a great way to use up leftover beef, and it is also a good source of protein and vegetables. If you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, lomo saltado is a great option.
