Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Gently pat the thawed beef dry with paper towels to remove any excess blood. This step is crucial for a clean and odorless steak flavor.
Step 2
Season the beef evenly on both sides with herb salt. If you don’t have herb salt, sprinkle with regular salt and then generously coat with black pepper. For extra flavor, you can add more black pepper after the herb salt.
Step 3
Cut the seasoned beef into bite-sized cubes (about 1-inch pieces). You can add more pepper before or after cubing, but ensure the seasoning is well-distributed.
Step 4
Place the cubed beef in a zip-top bag. Drizzle with a little olive oil and massage the bag gently to coat all the meat pieces evenly. This helps tenderize the meat and allows the seasonings to penetrate better. Once coated, refrigerate the beef for a short marinating time.
Step 5
Wash the bell peppers thoroughly, remove the seeds, and chop them into cubes similar in size to the beef. Using a variety of colors will make the dish visually appealing and add a range of flavors.
