Bistek de Chicago

Posted: 2015-09-22 | @lm!ng

Bistek is beef steak cooked in Pinoy style. This recipe is one of the easy to prepare and cook course because there are only a few ingredients and the steps are easy simple. I called it "Bistek ala Chicago" because I got this recipe from my big brother in Chicago. According to my nephew and niece, their dad's beef dish is the best! Just make sure the beef is thinly sliced otherwise it will be harder to make it tender. To make things less complicated, you can buy ready to cook sirloin beef packs. By the way, this recipe is supposed to be my brother's secret recipe, but I'm revealing it to the world. :)
  1. Marinate the beef with soy sauce, calamansi (vinegar) for at least 30 minutes.
  2. On the pan, put the cooking oil.
  3. Wait until the oil is hot then fry the onions until soft.
  4. Set aside half of the fried onions
  5. On the sam pan, add the garlic and saute for about 3-4 minutes
  6. Pour the marinated beef and cover it then bring to boil
  7. Mix the beef from time to time and check if the water is almost dried up and tender.
  8. Wait until the oil from the beef comes out then put the bell pepper.
  9. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until muffins begin to turn brown on top.
  10. Garnish the stir fried onions
  11. Share it while it's hot
