Greek Inspired Beef With Feta Cheese And Vegetables Recipes

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.

Steps:

• Heat oil and butter in a Dutch oven over medium heat.
• Season the beef with salt and pepper.
• Add in the beef cubes (cooking in batches) cook until browned remove to a plate.
• Repeat with remaining beef.
• Return the first batch of beef back to the pot.
• Add in the oregano, onions and garlic; cook stirring with wooden spoon for 3-4 minutes.
• Add in wine with all remaining ingredients except the currants and feta cheese; bring to a boil, simmer covered over medium-low heat for about 1-1/2 hours, then discard the whole cloves and bay leaves.
• Add in the currants and continue to cook (uncovered) over very low heat for about 30 minutes more, or until the beef is tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Sprinkle in the feta the last 5-6 minutes of cooking and push down slightly with a spoon.
• Season with more salt and freshly ground pepper if needed.
• Ladle into bowls and serve with crust bread or buns.
• Delicious!
