1

Marinate the beef

Place the beef slices in a bowl and marinate them with soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, cumin, and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Let it sit for at least 30 minutes to soak up all those delicious flavors.

2

Sauté the onions and peppers

In a large skillet, heat some olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, and sauté them until they become tender and slightly charred. This will take about 5-7 minutes. Don't be shy, let those veggies get some color!

3

Pan-fry the beef

Remove the marinated beef from the bowl, reserving the marinade. In the same skillet, sauté the beef for a couple of minutes until it just starts to brown. You want it to be cooked medium-rare for maximum juiciness and flavor.

4

Mix it all together

Now, it's time to bring everything together! Add the sautéed onions, peppers, and reserved marinade to the skillet with the beef. Give it a good stir and let it cook for another minute or two to let all the flavors intertwine.

5

Serve and savor

Your Lomo Saltado is now ready to be devoured! Serve it hot over a bed of fluffy white rice and enjoy the explosion of Peruvian flavors. Garnish with a sprinkle of cilantro for an extra touch of freshness.
