Instructions

1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup onions and 1/4 cup bell peppers. Sauté for 4 minutes until the vegetables are softened and the onions are golden.
2. Step 2: Stir in 1 tbsp minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant — the garlic should scent the air without browning.
3. Step 3: Add 1.2 lbs beef slices and cook for 5 minutes, tossing frequently, until the beef is browned and the edges are crispy — the meat should be evenly seared but still juicy.
4. Step 4: Pour in 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp lime juice, 1/2 tsp cumin, and 1/2 tsp paprika. Stir to coat the beef and vegetables, then add 12 halved cherry tomatoes. Cook for 3 minutes until the tomatoes are softened and the sauce thickens.
5. Step 5: Remove from heat and garnish with 1/4 cup chopped cilantro. Serve immediately, allowing the flavors to meld — the dish should have a bright, tangy aroma with a hint of smoky paprika.
