Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds beef sirloin (cubed cut)
  • 1 teaspoon oil
  • 1 teaspoon garlic poweder
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon salt (I use kosher salt).
  • 1/3 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/3 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 cup tomato sauce
  • ½ small red pepper diced
  • ½ small green pepper diced
  • 1/2 cup olives, pimientos and capers (alcaparados)
  • 1 small red onion (diced)
  • 1 small plum tomato (diced)
  • 1 Jalapeno pepper (optional)
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 bay leaf

Instructions

  • The first step is to roughly chop the vegetables and set aside.  Then, proceed to season the meat with 1 teaspoon of garlic powder,  1 teaspoon black pepper, 1/3 teaspoon oregano, 1/3 teaspoon onion powder and 1 tablespoon salt,  You can also add  a tablespoon of my delicious and flavorful Sofrito (optional)
  • In a non-stick pan, over a medium-high temperature pour some olive oil. Place the beef cubes in the pan and let them cook for about 3 minutes each side. If the meat gets stuck to the pan when you try to flip, it means is not ready. Just wait until it releases easily.
  • After the meat has lightly browned, add olives, peppers, onion, Jalapeno, bay leaf and tomato sauce.
  • Lower the temperature and add 2 cups of water and cover the pan. Continue cooking for about 40 minutes or until the meat is soft and tender.
