Ingredients

• 1 teaspoon onion powder
• 2 tablespoons chili powder
• 2 teaspoons garlic powder
• 2 cups vegetable oil for frying
• black pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons salt-free seasoning blend
• 3 pounds beef sirloin, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
• 1 tablespoon ground ancho chile powder
• 2 teaspoons ground chipotle chile pepper
• 0.25 cup brown sugar
• 0.75 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 1.5 teaspoons liquid smoke flavoring

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Place the beef cubes into a large mixing bowl. Season with brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, chili powder, ancho powder, chipotle powder, salt-free seasoning, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, and black pepper. Marinate in the refrigerator at least 1 hour.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Step 3

Cook the beef in batches in the hot oil until browned on all sides and cooked to your desired degree of doneness, about 3 minutes for medium. Drain the beef cubes briefly on a paper towel-lined plate before serving. Allow the oil to become hot again before cooking the next batch of beef.
