This simple dish is quick and easy to fix, and it's delicious with rice and a tossed salad. Allow 30 minutes extra for marinating the beef.

Prep Time: 9 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 24 minutes

Ingredients:

1 pound sirloin steak, cut in strips about 1/4-inch thick
juice of 1 large lemon, about 3 tablespoons
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon sugar
2 cloves garlic, finely minced
2 tablespoons olive oil or vegetable oil
1 large red onion, sliced, or 2 medium sweet onions, sliced
chopped cilantro or parsley, for garnish, optional

Instructions:

In a glass or stainless steel bowl combine the beef strips with the soy sauce, lemon juice, pepper, sugar, and garlic. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Heat half of the oil in a large skillet. Fry the sliced onion until softened; transfer to a serving platter. With tongs, transfer about half of the beef strips to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring, or until browned. Arrange the cooked beef over the onions. Repeat with the remaining beef strips. Add the marinade to the skillet and simmer for 1 minute. Pour over the beef and serve with rice.
Serves 3 to 4.
