Filete con pimienta al estilo puertorriqueño

Ingredientes

• 1 pound beef top steak
• 1 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 cup water
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon
• 1 teaspoon white wine vinegar
• 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1/2 tablespoon msg
• 1/4 cup corn starch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 12 ounces water
• 1 teaspoons garlic paste
• 2 cups oil (for frying beef)
• 1 yellow onion
• 1 green pepper
• 1 tablespoon oil (to saute vegetables)

Preparación

1. 1

   Roughly chop the onion and pepper to about 1-inch pieces. Cut your beef into thin slices that are about 2 inches in size.

2. 2

   Add the beef, baking soda, and 1/4 cup of water to a large bowl. Mix everything well and let the meat tenderize for 15 minutes. Then rinse your meat until it no longer feels slippery and you remove the baking soda.

3. 3

   Season the beef by adding salt, sugar, black pepper, chicken bouillon, cooking wine, sesame oil, MSG, water, and cornstarch. Add 2 cups of oil to a big pan over medium-high heat. Fry the beef for 3 minutes. Make sure to stir while frying because the meat tends to stick together. You might have to fry in 2 batches depending on how big your pan is.

4. 4

   Add 1 tablespoon of oil to a Chinese wok or a big pan over medium-high heat and saute the onion and peppers for 1 minute. Then mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch into the soy sauce. Add the soy sauce mixture, water, garlic, and beef to the pan. Cook for 6 minutes so the sauce can thicken. Enjoy!
