Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Season the steak

   In a large bowl, combine the sliced steak with garlic paste, onion powder, adobo, black pepper, paprika, and soy sauce. Add Worcestershire sauce and mix well to combine.

2. Start cooking

   In a large pan over medium-high heat, add the oil. Add the seasoned steak to the pan.

3. Add liquid & simmer

   Add 2 cups of water to the seasoning bowl, swirl to capture all remaining flavor, and pour it into the pan. Lower the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 30 minutes.

4. Add vegetables

   After 30 minutes, check the gravy levels. If no additional water is needed, add the sliced peppers and yellow onion. Stir to combine.

5. Finish cooking

   Raise the heat back to medium-high, cover, and cook for 10 minutes.

6. Serve

   Serve warm, preferably with white rice.

Notes from My Kitchen

1. Swirling water in the seasoning bowl makes sure no flavor goes to waste.

2. Letting it simmer covered keeps the steak tender.

3. The peppers should stay slightly vibrant — don’t overcook them.
