Salvadoran Bistec Encebollado Recipe

Equipment

  • Large bowl for marinating
  • Large skillet for cooking the beef and onions
  • Cutting board and knife for slicing the onions and beef
  • Measuring cups and spoons for measuring ingredients
  • Tongs for stirring and flipping the beef in the skillet
  • Serving dish for the final dish

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. thinly sliced beef steak
  • 4 large onions, thinly sliced
  • 4 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup red wine vinegar
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 cup water
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, mix together the red wine vinegar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, water, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the thinly sliced beef steak to the bowl, and marinate it for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the sliced onions to the skillet, and cook them until they are caramelized, stirring occasionally. This should take about 10-15 minutes.
  • Remove the onions from the skillet and set them aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the marinated beef and cook until browned, stirring occasionally. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add the caramelized onions back into the skillet with the beef, and stir everything together.
  • Reduce the heat to low, and let the mixture simmer for 5-10 minutes.
  • Serve the Salvadoran Bistec Encebollado hot with rice and beans or tortillas.

Notes

Tip and Tricks

 
You can marinate the beef steak overnight to enhance the flavor.
Use a meat mallet to tenderize the beef steak before slicing.
Caramelize the onions slowly over low heat to bring out their natural sweetness.
