👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Cut the jerky into small bite-size pieces using kitchen shears, set in the boiling water to rehydrate, and set aside.
2. 2Combine the vegetable oil, onions, bell pepper, and salt in a 12-inch sauté pan over medium heat. Sweat until the onions are translucent, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and continue to cook for 2 to 3 minutes.
