Bistec Encebollado: Puerto Rican-Style Steak with Onions
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds beef sirloin steak, sliced thinly across the grain
  • 2 large white onions, sliced into rings
  • 1 cup beef stock
  • 1/2 cup olive oil
  • 1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 (.18 ounce) packet sazon seasoning
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pinch dried oregano
Instructions
1
Combine the tender cut of steak with sliced onions, beef stock, olive oil, a splash of vinegar, minced garlic, Sazón seasoning, salt, and dried oregano in a spacious resealable container; mix everything together to coat the steak evenly with the marinade. Remove as much air as possible from the bag, then seal it tightly. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to 2 days to allow the flavors to meld.

Next, carefully transfer all the contents of the bag to a large, deep skillet. Place the skillet over high heat and bring the mixture to a rolling boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a low simmer and cover the skillet with a lid. Let it cook gently for about 40 minutes, or until the steak is tender enough to be pierced with a fork.
