Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Slice the sirloin or chicken into strips, chop the bacon, slice the onion, and remove the stems from the serrano peppers.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chopped bacon until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside, leaving the bacon grease in the skillet.

  3. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and serrano peppers to the bacon grease. Sauté until the onions are translucent and the peppers are tender, about 5 minutes.

  4. 4

    Grill the Meat

    In a separate grill pan or outdoor grill, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the sirloin or chicken strips with salt and black pepper. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked.

  5. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Once the meat is cooked, add it to the skillet with the sautéed onions and peppers. Add the crispy bacon and toss everything together for a minute to combine flavors.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve the Puntas de Filete hot, garnished with additional serrano peppers if desired, alongside Mole de Almendra.
