Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 1/4 cups soy sauce
  • 1/4 cups lime juice
  • 1.5-2 lbs skirt steak (or other beef or chicken easily cut into strips)
  • 1 medium onion (sliced), or 15 medium scallions (green onions)
  • 2 large bell peppers (sliced)
  • 1 tsps chili powder (as allowed by doctor)

Steps

  1. Combine oil, lime juice, soy sauce and chili powder if using.
  2. Slice the chicken into about 1/2 inch slices
  3. In a skillet, mix the meat into the sauce mixture and marinate everything together in a bowl or a zip-type plastic.
  4. In a skillet, cook the meat first (make sure the strips are not over crowded). Add a little oil to the skillet and get it very hot to make the oil shiny. When the meat is browned, remove and set aside.
  5. Put in the veggies. When they soften, return meat to the skillet to heat through.
  6. Serve with guacamole, sour cream, salsa and cilantro. If observing your diet, low-carb tortillas are preferred.
