Bistek is a beef dish that is cooked with soy sauce, calamansi or lemon juice & lots of sliced onions.  It’s one of my go to dishes if I don’t want to spend too much time chopping or cooking in the kitchen.  It is best eaten with steamed rice or in my case, quinoa.

Ingredients:

• about 2 lbs. of thinly sliced beef
• 2 red onions, sliced
• 1 Tbsp chopped garlic
• 1 Tbsp onion powder
• 1 Tbsp garlic powder
• 2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
• 1 1/2 tsp course pepper
• 1/3 cup calamansi or lemon juice
• 1 – 1 1/2 cup liquid aminos (or soy sauce)
• 2 Tbsp olive oil

Instructions:

1. Oil the skillet or pan
2. Add chopped garlic and cook until lightly golden or fragrant
3. Add beef & pepper
4. Once starting to sizzle pour the worcestershire sauce
5. Combine calamansi or lemon juice and liquid aminos, adjust it to your taste
6. Add garlic & onion powder
7. Simmer until beef is tender
8. Add the onions & let it simmer until it cooks
9. Serve over steamed rice
10. Enjoy
