Beef Salpicao
An easy and tasty dish made with tender beef and lots of garlic, cooked quickly in one pan.
Ingredients
- 1 pound beef sirloin, tenderloin, or ribeye steak (cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 2 to 3 tablespoons cooking oil
- 6 cloves garlic (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- ¼ cup oyster sauce
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine beef cubes with Worcestershire sauce, black pepper, and cornstarch. Stir well to coat the beef evenly and let it sit for a few minutes.
- Heat oil in a large pan over medium-low heat. Add sliced garlic and fry until golden and crispy, then remove from the pan and set aside.
- Increase heat to high. Add marinated beef cubes in a single layer. Let cook undisturbed for about one minute until the bottom is browned, then stir and cook for another minute or two.
- If necessary, cook beef in batches to avoid overcrowding. Once cooked, return all beef to the pan, push to the sides, and add butter.
- Stir the butter into the beef until melted, then pour in the oyster sauce and stir to coat evenly. Add crispy garlic back into the pan and stir before serving.
- Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with chopped parsley or chives if desired.
