Bistek Tagalog is a classic Filipino dish made with thin slices of beef that are marinated in a savory and tangy mixture of soy sauce and calamansi juice, a citrus fruit native to the Philippines. The beef is then pan-fried and simmered in the marinade until it’s tender and flavorful. The dish is usually served with steamed rice and garnished with caramelized onions. Bistek Tagalog is a popular and easy-to-make dish that’s perfect for any occasion, whether it’s a family dinner or a festive celebration.

Steps

1
Done

In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, calamansi juice, brown sugar, black pepper, and minced garlic. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.

2
Done

Add the beef slices to the marinade and mix well. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

3
Done

In a pan over medium-high heat, heat the cooking oil. Add the sliced onions and cook until they are caramelized and golden brown. Remove the onions from the pan and set aside.

4
Done

Using the same pan, remove the beef from the marinade and cook in batches for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.

5
Done

Pour the remaining marinade into the pan and add 1/2 cup water. Bring it to a boil and let it simmer for 5 minutes, or until it thickens into a sauce.

6
Done

Add the beef slices back into the pan and coat them with the sauce. Simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the beef is tender and fully cooked.

7

Transfer the beef and sauce to a serving plate and top it with the caramelized onions.

8
