Greek Inspired Beef With Feta Cheese And Vegetables Recipes

GREEK INSPIRED BEEF WITH FETA CHEESE AND VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Combine the ingredients for the marinade (lemon juice, black pepper, salt, oregano, basil, garlic. The recipe gave me trouble in posting, sorry) in a plastic zipper lock bag.
• A large"freezer" quality bag is best.
• Add beef to bag, remove as much air as possible.
• Knead the beef between your fingers to encourage tenderness and to jump start the marinading process.
• Refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight.
• Remove beef from marinade, but don't drain it.
• Heat olive oil in frying pan and cook beef thouroughly.
• Remove beef from pan, set aside.
• Use remaining oil to sauté onion.
• Add salt to separate layers slightly.
• Add peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes.
• Re-introduce beef.
• Cook until tomatoes get tender.
• This won't take very long.
• Serve over white rice and garnish with feta cheese and black olives if desired.
