Ingredients

• 1 pound beef sirloin
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 tablespoons lemon juice
• 2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 2 teaspoons ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 1.5 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 8 romaine lettuce leaves
• 1 cucumber, sliced
• 1 large tomato, sliced
• 0.5 red onion, thinly sliced

Directions

Step 1

Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips and place in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix together olive oil, lemon juice, ground cumin, ground coriander, ground allspice, ground turmeric, cayenne pepper, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 3

Pour the marinade over the beef strips, ensuring they are well-coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to meld.

Step 4

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef strips and cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until the beef is browned and cooked through.

Step 5

While the beef is cooking, prepare the vegetables: wash and separate the romaine lettuce leaves to form wraps, slice the cucumber, tomato, and red onion.

Step 6

Once the beef is ready, divide it among the lettuce leaves.

Step 7

Top each wrap with sliced cucumber, tomato, and red onion.

Step 8

Roll the lettuce leaves to create wraps, securing them with a toothpick if needed, and serve immediately.
