Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Make the salsa without the lime juice.
  2. Drop the garlic and chili pieces one at a time into a running food processor, letting each get finely chopped before adding the next. Turn off the processor and remove the lid. Cut 1 tomato in quarters and add it to the food processor, along with the cilantro. Pulse 4 to 6 times, until you have a coarse puree. Scrape the mixture into a bowl.
  3. Cut the other tomato into 1/4 inch pieces and add to the bowl, along with the green onion. Taste and season with lime juice (or vinegar) and salt, usually a generous 1/2 teaspoons This salsa is best if eaten within an hour or two, but it will keep for a number of hours in the refrigerator.
  4. Heat a wok (or a very large skillet) over medium high heat. Drizzle in a little olive oil, then, in 2 batches, stir-fry the steak until lightly browned. Remove to a plate, leaving behind as much oil as possible. Stir-fry the salsa until reduced – this can take up to 10 minutes. Add about 1/2 cup water or beef broth, return the browned meat to the pan and bring to a boil. Serve, passing around quartered limes and extra chopped green chili and cilantro.
