1 piece medium green chili peppers
1 piece medium zucchini
1 piece medium eggplant
1 piece medium onion
2 clove garlic
150 gram button mushrooms

Step-by-Step Preparation

Speed:1x

Preheat the oven to 200 degrees (top-bottom setting) and let it heat up. During this time, wash the beef cubes and dry them thoroughly with paper towels. Removing the moisture from the meat ensures they brown better while cooking.

Chop the red capia pepper, green chili pepper, zucchini, and eggplant into large cubes. Slice the onion into wedges and the garlic into thin slices. Clean the button mushrooms with a damp cloth and cut them into 4 pieces. Leave the cherry tomatoes whole or chop them into large cubes if you are using regular tomatoes.

Add all the chopped vegetables (red and green peppers, zucchini, eggplant, onion, garlic, mushrooms, tomatoes) and the prepared beef cubes to a large baking tray or a heat-resistant baking dish. Spread all the ingredients evenly over the tray.

Drizzle 3 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil over the top. Sprinkle salt, black pepper, dried thyme, and red pepper flakes over all the ingredients. Gently mix everything with your hands or a spatula so that the spices and olive oil are distributed evenly everywhere.

Place the prepared tray on the middle rack of the preheated 200 degree oven. Cook for approximately 30-35 minutes until the meat and vegetables are well cooked and the vegetables are slightly caramelized. You can take the tray out of the oven halfway through the cooking time and stir once to ensure everything cooks evenly.

Transfer the hot beef sauté with vegetables from the oven to a serving plate. During serving, sprinkle finely chopped fresh dill over the dish and drizzle a few drops of high-quality extra virgin olive oil to add a fresh aroma and shine to the dish.

Chef's Tips

Searing your meat over high heat for a few minutes before putting it in the oven can lock in the juices and make it more flavorful. You can do this step in a large pan and then add it to the tray.
To prevent the vegetables from releasing too much water, pay attention to your oven settings and ensure the tray is not overcrowded. High heat helps the vegetables roast instead of steaming.
To make this dish a healthy and filling meal, you can serve it with lightly toasted whole grain bread croutons to provide both freshness and texture. A bowl of yogurt or ayran would also go very well with it.

Alternative & Optional Ingredients

You can achieve a similar flavor by using chicken breast or thigh meat instead of beef cubes, but you may need to adjust the cooking time according to the type of meat.
Depending on the season, you can add different vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, or Brussels sprouts instead of zucchini or eggplant. Cutting all vegetables to the same size is important for even cooking.

Gourmet Recommendations

For a sweet-sour touch, you can drizzle a very small amount of high-quality balsamic vinegar over the dish as soon as it comes out of the oven at the end of cooking.
For a different aroma experience, you can add a few sprigs of fresh rosemary or thyme to the tray during cooking.
