We've been making and loving this Lomo Saltado recipe for years! It has tender beef cooked in a stir-fry with fresh veggies and a delicious sauce, served with rice and french fries.
If you love an easy stir-fry, Lomo Saltado will be your new favorite.
My husband fell in love Lomo Saltado when living in Argentina (many Peruvians live there, and Peruvian food was his absolute favorite). What's not to love about a stir-fry of steak and veggies, with French fries? And a stir-fry made in 20 minutes, to boot? This is SO EASY and always devoured. If you want authentic lomo saltado, make the french fries from scratch. But if you're in a hurry, throw some store-bought frozen fries in the air-fryer and call it good.
And if you love cuisine from Central and South America, try our Arroz Chaufa, Pupusas, Gallo Pinto, or Argentine Empanadas.
How to make Lomo Saltado:
Cook Beef: Season beef slices with salt, pepper, garlic, cumin, oregano, and oil and marinate for 10-15 minutes (or several hours). Heat 1-2 tablespoons of oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Cook beef in batches to avoid overcrowding. Stir-fry briefly, just 2-3 minutes total, flipping once. They should be browned but still juicy. Remove from pan and set aside.
Add onion and bell pepper and cook 2-3 minutes, then add tomatoes. Return beef to the pan and add soy sauce, red wine vinegar, oyster sauce, and beef broth. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add cilantro then remove from heat.
Serve the best lomo saltado recipe over hot cooked white rice, with fries on the side.
