Definition:

Bistec a la Mexicana is a traditional Mexican dish consisting of thinly sliced beef steak cooked in a flavorful sauce made with tomatoes, onions, peppers, and spices.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound flank steak, thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 green bell peppers, chopped
  • 2 red bell peppers, chopped
  • 4 Roma tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • Instructions:

    1. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.

    2. Add the steak slices and cook until browned on both sides. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

    3. Add the onion, green peppers, and red peppers to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.

    4. Stir in the tomatoes, garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.

    5. Return the steak slices to the skillet and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your desired doneness.

    6. Stir in the cilantro and serve immediately.
