Turkish pepper steak recipe with sweet green peppers, garlic, onion, and tomatoes is stir-fried and cooked with beef cubes until fork-tender.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, small dice
  • 3 medium green bell pepper or Turkish sivi biber peppers
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 3 teaspoons sea salt, divided
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse black pepper
  • 2 small tomatoes, diced
  • 2 pounds beef stew meat, small cube
  • 2 tablespoons Turkish red pepper paste
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried mint
  • 1 teaspoon ground paprika powder
  • Fresh chopped parsley for garnish
  • cooked rice and fresh chopped parsley for serving

Instructions

  1. Place a large skillet over medium heat. Once heated, drizzle in the olive oil. Add the onion, peppers, garlic, oregano, 1 teaspoon of salt, and pepper. Stir-fry until the onions have softened.
  2. Add the tomatoes and cook until the tomatoes break down.
  3. Add the beef. Stir-fry until the meat has browned. There should be juices from the beef entering the pan at this point.
  4. Add the red pepper paste, mint, and paprika to the beef. Stir-fry just enough to distribute the paste all over the beef.
  5. Add enough water to cover the beef halfway.
  6. Lower the heat. Cook, covered with a lid, stirring occasionally for 45 minutes or until the sauce has thickened and the meat is tender.
  7. Serve over rice and garnish with fresh chopped parsley.
