Lomo Saltado (Peru)



Lomo saltado is a traditional Peruvian dish consisting of stir-fried marinated sirloin or beef tenderloin slices, onions, yellow Peruvian peppers and tomatoes. The dish is typically served with chips and rice on the side and can be found on the menus of almost any Peruvian restaurant, whether simple or luxurious.

The dish had a major Asian influence in the 19th century due to the influx of Chinese immigrants. Over the years, some Chinese cooking techniques have been combined with Peruvian and new dishes such as lomo saltado have been invented. Today there are many variations of the dish, so when called pollo saltado, the beef can be replaced with chicken.

If noodles and vegetables are substituted for potatoes, it is called tallarin saltado. Bringing together the old and new worlds, lomo saltado remains one of Peru's most beloved dishes.
