Bistek

I love this dish, it has to be one of my all time favorite Filipino dishes. Although this didn't turn out to be as good as the one my boyfriend's mom makes, it still had that same simple but Delicious flavor. Plus it is amazingly easy to make! Enjoy!

Ingredients
1 pound sirloin steak, cut into thin pieces
1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Sprinkle of salt
1 red onion, cut into rings
cooking oil

Directions
1. Marinate meat in lime juice, soy sauce, pepper and salt.
2. Using a generous amount of oil, cook onion rings until transparent and soft. Transfer to a serving dish.
3. Cook meat in the same skillet, on high heat, stirring often, until browned and tender.
4. Add lime juice or salt to taste if desired.
5. Add onions back into the skillet, cook for another two minutes.

Serve with rice or baked potato wedges.
