Transport your taste buds to Peru with Lomo Saltado, a vibrant stir-fried dish where tender sirloin strips dance with red onions, tomatoes, and potatoes in a savory soy-vinegar sauce. This emblematic Chifa creation showcases the brilliant cultural fusion born when Chinese immigrants brought their cooking techniques to Peru in the mid-1800s. Served with both rice and french fries, it's the ultimate comfort food spanning two continents.

Ingredients
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 lb sirloin steak, cut into strips
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
½ red onion, sliced
1 medium tomato, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced

(continued in the next column ↗️)

1 tablespoon aji amarillo paste
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
1 lb french fries, cooked, hot
white rice, cooked, for serving, optional

Directions
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan over high heat. Add the steak, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned, 5-6 minutes. Remove from the pan.
  2. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the same pan, then add the red onion and cook for about 5 minutes, until softened and browned. Add the tomato, garlic, and aji amarillo paste, and cook for another 5-7 minutes, until the tomatoes have released some of their juices, but are still intact.
  3. Add the soy sauce and vinegar and stir to combine, let cook for 1 minute.
  4. Add the steak, fries, and cilantro. Toss gently to coat the fries in the sauce.
