MEXICAN BEEF STIR-FRY
This is a very unique stir fry, in that it's served on a bed of shredded lettuce instead of over rice! To save time, you can buy a bag of pre-shredded lettuce. I like 2 or more jalapenos, but I like things spicy. If you'd like, you can garnish with salsa, diced avocados, chopped green onions, and sour cream! I like this served hot, but you can serve it cold as a salad....but I really like it hot over the cold lettuce!

Tips:
- Use a well-seasoned wok. This will help prevent the beef from sticking and will also add flavor to the dish.
- Cut the beef against the grain. This will make it more tender.
- Marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes. This will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
- Use a high heat when cooking the beef. This will help to sear the outside of the beef and keep it juicy on the inside.
- Don't overcrowd the wok. This will prevent the beef from cooking evenly.
- Stir-fry the beef in batches if necessary. This will help to ensure that all of the beef is cooked evenly.
- Add the vegetables towards the end of the cooking process. This will help to prevent them from becoming overcooked.
- Serve the stir-fry immediately over rice or noodles.
