MEXICAN BEEF STIR-FRY



Mexican Beef Stir-Fry image

This is a very unique stir fry, in that it's served on a bed of shredded lettuce instead of over rice! To save time, you can buy a bag of pre-shredded lettuce. I like 2 or more jalapenos, but I like things spicy. If you'd like, you can garnish with salsa, diced avocados, chopped green onions, and sour cream! I like this served hot, but you can serve it cold as a salad....but I really like it hot over the cold lettuce!

FIESTA STEAK



Fiesta Steak image

If your steak is very thick, you may need to add up to eight minutes more in the oven. Let your nose be your guide. This recipe is chock full of vegetables-a great way to get your meat lover to eat vegetables, too! Try this recipe with chicken pieces instead of steak for a change. My aunt swears by kosher salt and freshly squeezed lemon or lime when cooking meat, but I prefer to use sea salt whenever I'm cooking.

Yield serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 14

Olive oil spray
1 cup white rice
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon broth (beef or vegetable) or water
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice (2 to 3 limes)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon chopped fresh oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 to 3/4 pound boneless steak
Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 onion, halved and thinly sliced
1/2 yellow bell pepper, cored, seeded, and sliced into strips
1/2 red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and sliced into strips
1/2 green bell pepper, cored, seeded, and sliced into strips

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450°F.
  • Spray the inside and lid of a cast-iron Dutch oven with olive oil.
  • Rinse the rice in a strainer under cold water until the water runs clear. Tip the rice into the pot, add the liquid, and stir to make an even layer.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the lime juice, cilantro, oregano, and cumin.
  • Add the steak to the pot, season with salt and pepper, and spoon half of the lime juice mixture over the meat.
  • Sprinkle the garlic over the steak and top with the onion. Then scatter on the bell pepper strips, and spoon the rest of the lime juice mixture over all.
  • Cover and bake for 45 minutes, or until 3 minutes after the aroma of a fully cooked meal escapes the oven. Serve immediately.
