🥗Healthier: chicken breast

💰Cheaper: pork loin

Chicken breast is lower in fat and pork loin is less expensive.

Marinate steak with garlic, ginger, red chili powder, cumin, coriander, turmeric, black pepper, salt, and lemon juice for at least 30 minutes.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.

Add marinated steak to the skillet, searing for 4-5 minutes on each side until a crust forms.

Reduce heat to medium and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare doneness.

Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, aiming for 130-135°F for medium-rare.

Remove steak from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes to retain juices.

In the same skillet, add sliced onions and green chili; sauté until onions are translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

Slice the rested steak against the grain into thin strips.

Serve the steak topped with sautéed onions and fresh cilantro.
