Lomo Saltado with Crispy Fries

Step 1: Cook the French Fries

Meanwhile, cook the french fries according to package instructions until crispy and golden brown.

Step 2: Marinate the Beef

In a large bowl, combine the beef, soy sauce, red wine vinegar, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper. Toss to coat the beef evenly and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.

• 1 lb beef
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp paprika
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp black pepper

Step 3: Cook the Beef

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the beef and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• Marinated beef from step 2

Step 4: Cook the Vegetables

Add the sliced onion, tomatoes, and jalapeno pepper to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are slightly softened.

• 1 onion, sliced
• 2 tomatoes, diced
• 1 jalapeno pepper, sliced

Step 5: Combine and Finish

Return the beef to the skillet and stir to combine with the vegetables. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the beef is cooked to your liking.

Step 6: Serve

To serve, divide the fries among four plates and top with the beef and vegetable mixture. Garnish with chopped cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.
