Ingredients
  

  • 1 to 1.5 pounds of shaved steak
  • 2 large bell peppers (green, red, or a combination), thinly sliced
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 2-3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil or olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Optional seasonings: paprika, cayenne pepper, Italian seasoning
  • Sub rolls or crusty bread for serving

Instructions
 

Season the shaved steak:

  • Begin by placing the shaved steak in a roomy bowl.
  • Season it generously with salt and black pepper. Feel free to incorporate optional seasonings like paprika, cayenne pepper, or Italian seasoning if you desire.
  • Toss the steak to ensure even seasoning.

Heat the cooking oil:

  • Take a large skillet or frying pan and heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable or olive oil over medium-high heat.

Sauté the peppers and onions:

  • Add thinly sliced bell peppers to the skillet once the oil is hot.
  • Sauté them for approximately 3-4 minutes until they soften and become vibrant in colour.

Add the onions:

  • Combine the thinly sliced onions with the sautéing peppers.
  • Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the onions and peppers turn tender and develop a slight caramelization, usually taking 5-7 minutes.

Cook the shaved steak:

  • Create space in the skillet by pushing the sautéed peppers and onions to one side.
  • On the other side, evenly spread the seasoned shaved steak.
  • Cook the steak for approximately 2-3 minutes on one side until it develops a pleasing brown sear and a slight crispiness.

Combine and finish:

  • Using tongs, flip the steak to cook the other side for an additional 2-3 minutes or until it reaches your preferred level of doneness.
  • Once the steak is cooked to your liking, integrate it with the sautéed peppers and onions.
  • Add the minced garlic to the mixture and cook for an extra minute until the garlic becomes aromatic.

Serve:

  • Transfer the flavorful concoction of shaved steak, peppers, onions, and garlic to a serving platter.
  • This delectable blend can be served on sub rolls or slices of crusty bread for mouthwatering sandwiches.
  • Alternatively, pair it with rice, pasta, or mashed potatoes for a heartier and more satisfying meal.

Enjoy:

  • If you desire, consider garnishing your dish with fresh herbs or a sprinkle of grated cheese to enhance the flavours.
