Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g beef sirloin, thinly sliced
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 1 large red bell pepper, julienned
- 1 large green bell pepper, julienned
- 3 medium tomatoes, diced
- 1 tsp chili flakes
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 0.5 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1.5 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 3 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
Instructions
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil along with the minced garlic and sliced yellow onion. Sauté for 2 minutes until softened and fragrant.
Add the julienned red and green bell peppers to the skillet and stir-fry for another 3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Stir in the diced tomatoes, chili flakes, ground cumin, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 2 minutes to combine the flavors.
Return the browned beef to the skillet and mix well with the vegetable and spice mixture. Lower the heat to medium and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the beef is fully cooked and tender.
Turn off the heat and sprinkle the chopped parsley and lemon juice over the stir-fry. Mix gently to incorporate.
Serve hot with steamed rice, couscous, or flatbread.
