Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 3 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat until shimmering.
  2. Step 2: Add 1 lb cubed beef sirloin and sear for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally until browned on all sides but still juicy inside.
  3. Step 3: Remove beef and set aside. In the same skillet, add 1 large sliced yellow onion, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp minced ginger, sautéing for 3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  4. Step 4: Stir in 2 tbsp berbere spice mix and cook for 1 minute to toast the spices.
  5. Step 5: Add 1 medium sliced red bell pepper, 1 medium sliced green bell pepper, and 1 large diced tomato, stirring to combine. Cook for 5 minutes until vegetables are tender but crisp.
  6. Step 6: Return the beef to the skillet, season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper, and toss everything together. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to blend flavors.
  7. Step 7: Remove from heat and garnish with 1 tbsp chopped fresh parsley before serving.
