Beef Steak Tagalog

This family classic is best enjoyed over hot, just-cooked rice! Yum!

Serves 4 to 6 Prep Time 15 minutes  Cooking Time 15 minutes

1/4 cup calamansi juice
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

3  In a sauté pan, heat oil. Fry the potatoes until golden. Drain on a paper towel; set aside.

4  In another pan, melt 2 tablespoons butter; sear the beef slices on high heat in batches. (Drain marinade and reserve for later). Add butter as needed.

5  Once beef is cooked, add onion rings and cook until translucent.
