Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1/2 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 pounds sirloin steak , trimmed and cut into strips against the grain
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil , divided
- 1 red onion , halved and slivered
- 4 large garlic cloves , crushed
- 1 green bell pepper , seeded, halved and slivered
- 2 fresh jalapeños , seeded, halved, chopped
- 1 inch large tomato , chopped into 1x1 cubes
- 1/4 cup cilantro , coarsely chopped
- 1 tablespoon hot sauce
- 16 ounces frozen country style French fries ,prepared according to package directions
- 4 cups white rice , cooked
Instructions
- In a medium bowl combine the cumin, coriander, salt and pepper, mix well. Add the sliced steak and toss. Drizzle with the vinegar 1 tablespoon of the oil and toss again. Set aside for a minimum of 15 minutes to marinate.
- Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in a large, high-sided skillet. When hot, add the onions, garlic, bell peppers and jalapenos. Saute until vegetables are start to soften, but still hold their shape, approximately 5 minutes. Remove from the pan and set aside.
- Without cleaning the pan, add the steak strips with marinade. Sear on all sides until you see no more pink. Return the cooked vegetables to the pan. Add tomato, cilantro and hot sauce, toss and heat for an additional 2 minutes.
- To serve, divide cooked rice between 4 dishes and spoon the beef stir fry over the rice. Evenly divide the fries on each plate. I suggest waiting until right before you eat to combine fries with steak, otherwise they get mushy.
