Prepare the ingredients: Cut the beef or lamb into bite-sized cubes (about 1-inch pieces). Thinly slice the onions. Dice the tomatoes. Finely mince the jalapeños (or serranos) and garlic. Grate or mince the fresh ginger. Lightly bruise the rosemary sprigs by gently pressing them with the back of a knife.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Heat the cooking fat: Place a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the Niter Kibbeh (or your chosen fat). Allow it to melt and become fragrant, shimmering slightly.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 3
Sear the meat: Add the cubed meat to the hot skillet in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary to ensure proper searing. Sear the meat for about 2-3 minutes per side until nicely browned and a good crust has formed. Remove the seared meat from the skillet and set aside.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 4
Sauté aromatics: Reduce the heat to medium. Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sauté, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften and turn translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic, ginger, and jalapeños. Cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 5
Combine and cook: Return the seared meat to the skillet. Add the diced tomatoes and the bruised rosemary sprigs. Stir everything together. Season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, for another 5-7 minutes, or until the meat is cooked through to your desired doneness and the tomatoes have softened.
⏱️ 7 minutes - 6
Serve: Remove the rosemary sprigs before serving. Serve the Tibs immediately, ideally sizzling hot, traditionally accompanied by Injera (Ethiopian sourdough flatbread).
