This is my dad’s Kelaguen recipe, from Dededo, Guam. This is no-heat cooking, the meat ‘cooks’ in the marinade. I serve this over rice.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Tabasco to taste
- 1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
- 2 pounds beef flank steak, very thinly sliced against the grain
Directions
- Pour lemon juice, soy sauce, and Tabasco in a large, glass bowl. Stir in the green onions and beef. Add additional lemon juice if needed to cover the beef.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, and allow to rest at room temperature for one hour, until the meat turns a grayish-brown color and appears cooked.
