Peruvian Stir-fried Noodles with Beef

Ingredients

• 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced
• 8 oz cooked noodles (spaghetti or lo mein)
• 1 medium red onion, sliced
• 2 medium tomatoes, cut into wedges
• 1 medium bell pepper, sliced
• 2 cups frozen french fries
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 3 tbsp vegetable oil

Instructions

1. 1

   Cook the french fries according to package directions until crispy, about 20 minutes in a 425°F oven. Set aside.

2. 2

   Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering. Add the 1 lb beef in a single layer and sear without stirring for 2 minutes until browned, then stir-fry for 2 more minutes until just cooked through. Remove beef and set aside.

3. 3

   Add the remaining 1 tbsp oil to the skillet. Add the 1 sliced onion and 1 sliced bell pepper; stir-fry over high heat for 3 minutes until slightly charred and crisp-tender.

4. 4

   Add the 2 tomato wedges and stir-fry for 1 minute until they start to soften but still hold their shape.

5. 5

   Return the beef to the skillet. Add the 8 oz cooked noodles and 3 tbsp soy sauce; toss everything together for 2 minutes until the noodles are heated through and coated.

6. 6

   Serve the stir-fry topped with the crispy fries and garnish with chopped chives or sliced red chili if you like.

7. 7

   Enjoy immediately while hot.
