Ron, this is the dressing recipe I used.

Italian Dressing
1 Cup mayo
1/2 Cup olive oil
1/4 Cup white vinegar
1/4 Cup water (I'm going to leave that out next time)
1/2 Cup finely grated Parmesan cheese
2 Tablespoons lemon juice (that was 1/2 lemon for me)
2 Tablespoons finely minced fresh parsley
1 1/2 Tablespoons sugar (I only used about 1 Tab)
3 Tablespoons Italian seasoning
2 large garlic cloves, minced
salt & pepper to taste

I liked the Parmesan cheese in it. And didn't use nearly as much pepper, didn't think it needed it.

I made Lomo Saltado last night for the second time and think this recipe is worth sharing. It’s a Peruvian dish that I love but have never been able to get right. Last night’s turned out better than the restaurant’s where I learned to love it and my Daughter’s who’s is better.

I used this as my base recipe https://tasty.co/recipe/peruvian-lomo-saltado but modified it using techniques and slight changes from several others. I make the Pico de gallo early in the day so that it has plenty of time to blend the flavors. Adjust both recipes dependent upon how much heat you do or don’t like (I like heat). If you don’t like cilantro substitute flat leaf parsley.

Pico de gallo

1 Red Onion finely diced
2 Cloves of Garlic crushed and minced
½ Cup Cilantro
1 TBS Ground Cumin
1 TBS Black Pepper
1 tsp Mexican Oregano
4 Jalapeno Peppers finely diced
4-6 Tomatoes Coarsely diced
Some folks add salt, but I wait until it’s on the plate
Juice of 4 limes.

Put everything in the bowl and let it set on the counter for a few hours.

Marinade

Slice 1 pound of steak (I used sirloin, but any tender steak works well)
2 TBS Olive Oil
2 Packs of Goya Sazon
2 Cloves of Garlic minced
1 TSP Black Pepper
1 TBS Soy Sauce

Mix it all together and let it set while you prepare everything else. Give it a stir now and again.

Preparation Ingredients (best to keep everything separate)

2 TBS Olive Oil
2-3 TBS Goya Sofrito
1 Red Onion Sliced on the radius about ½ inch thick
4-6 Green Onions sliced about 2” long Greens and all.
2 Jalapeno Peppers minced fine (Aji Amarillo Peppers are traditional, but I can’t get them)
1” of Fresh Ginger minced fine
2 Cloves of Garlic crushed and minced
4-6 Tomatoes Sliced on the radius about ½ inch thick
2 TBS Soy Sauce
1 TBS White Vinegar
1 Pound Hot (cooked) French Fries
½ Cup Cilantro
Cooked white rice

Preparation

This is a stir fry and slight charring is good and adds to the flavor. So I used a wok, a nice heavy cast iron skillet would be great too.

Put the oil in your pan and get it really hot. Add the meat one piece at a time keeping lots of space, only do about half each time. Toss the meat but let it get a bit of a char first, add 1 TBS of the sofrito and toss well and give it a couple minutes to cook into the meat, remove the meat to a bowl and repeat for the rest of it. Empty the pan into the bowl.

Add a bit more olive oil and get it hot. Add the onions and cook for a minute or two, then add the green onions and cook for a minute or two. Add the Jalapeno peppers and the ginger and cook another minute or two. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant just a few seconds. Return the meat and juices to the pan and add the tomatoes. Toss for just a minute or two and then add the soy and vinegar to the pan. Stir and toss to combine and coat everything, then add the French Fries to the pan and toss (some don’t toss the fries and just serve them on the side). Remove from heat and stir in the cilantro. Serve with white rice & Pico de gallo.

TIP

Add canned corn, black beans and freshly diced avocado to any leftover Pico to make a wonderful dip. The extra lime juice is a nice add to tortilla soup base.

I hope it turns out tasty!

 

[jnicholes]

I'm pretty sure it'll turn out good!

I boiled it to get the fat out, and you're not going to believe how much fat was on this thing.

It was FAT.



This was clear when I started.

 

[pennyJo1960]

Gonna save the fat from it for some gravy? Jared?

 

[jnicholes]

@penny1960, I've never made gravy out of fat. How do I do it? Is it even a good idea?
