    Recipe Introduction


    These thin marinated and fried steaks are probably the most
    popular way to serve beef in Cuba. The preparation takes a
    little time and elbow grease, but they cook in a jiffy.
    Cuban - Fried Marinated Steak (Bistec de Palomillo)

    4-6 top round or other flavorful steaks,
    ...4 to 6 oz (110-170 g) each, pounded to
    ...a thickness of 1/4 inch (5 mm)
    2-3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    Juice of 2 limes
    Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
    4 Tbsps (60 ml) olive oil
    1 onion, finely chopped
    1/4 cup (60 ml) chopped parsley

    Sprinkle the steaks with garlic, lime juice, salt, and pepper and
    marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 hours. Remove the steaks
    from the marinade and pat dry, reserving the remaining marinade.
    Heat the oil until it is very hot in a large heavy skillet over moderate
    heat. Saute the steaks for 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Transfer
    the steaks to a serving platter and keep in a warm oven. Add the
    onion and reserved marinade to the skillet and saute until the
    onion is slightly wilted, about 3 minutes. Garnish the steaks with
    the onion and parsley and serve immediately.
    Serves 4 to 6.
