Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin steak
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 cup arrowroot powder
Instructions
Begin by placing the beef sirloin steak on a cutting board. Using a sharp knife, slice the steak into thin strips, roughly 1/4 inch wide.
In a mixing bowl, combine the garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
Sprinkle the seasoning mixture over the beef strips, ensuring they are evenly coated.
Next, add the arrowroot powder to the seasoned beef strips, tossing until each strip is lightly coated with a thin layer of the powder.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. You want the oil to be hot enough to sizzle upon contact with the beef, but not smoking.
Carefully add the beef strips to the skillet in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding. You may need to cook them in batches.
Cook the beef strips for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use tongs to flip them halfway through cooking.
Once the beef strips are cooked, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the crispy pan-fried beef strips immediately, garnished with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley if desired.
