Ingredients:
- 8 single-serve bags green tea
- 1 (1-inch) piece ginger, peeled and chopped
- 1 bunch green onions, green and white parts, sliced
- 2 pounds sirloin tips, cut into 8 pieces
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Lime wedges for garnish
Directions:
Bring 6 cups water to a boil in a pot. Once boiling, turn off heat, let water cool for a minute or two, then add tea bags and ginger. Cover and steep for about 10 minutes, then remove and discard tea bags. Allow tea mixture to cool completely, then add half of the green onions. Place sirloin tips in a large plastic bag and add the tea marinade. Seal and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
Remove sirloin tips and discard marinade. Season all over with salt and pepper. Heat half of the oil in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add half of the sirloin tips and cook, flipping once, until cooked to desired doneness. Transfer to a large plate as done, cover, and keep warm. Repeat process with remaining oil and sirloin tips.
Serve sirloin tips sprinkled with the remaining green onions, with lime wedges on the side.
