For optimal tenderness, marinate the beef overnight. Do not overcrowd the pan when frying the beef; cook in batches to ensure proper searing and avoid steaming the meat. Serve with steamed rice for a complete and satisfying Filipino-inspired meal.

Follow The Directions
01
StepIn a large bowl, combine the sliced beef with lemon juice, soy sauce, sugar, salt, and pepper. Whisk together until well combined, then add cornstarch and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight. (Marinating Time: 1 hour to overnight)
02
StepHeat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. (Prep Time: 2 minutes)
03
StepRemove beef slices from marinade, shaking off any excess liquid. Discard the used marinade. (Prep Time: 1 minute)
04
StepWorking in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, fry the beef slices in hot oil until they are firm, reddish-pink, and juicy in the center, about 2 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer cooked beef to a serving platter. (Cook Time: 2-4 minutes per side, per batch)
05
StepIn a separate small skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic and cook until the onion is golden brown and softened, approximately 5 to 7 minutes. Spoon the onion-garlic mixture over the fried beef slices and serve immediately. (Cook Time: 5-7 minutes)
