Peruvian Lomo Saltado Steak Stir-Fry with Potatoes

Originally we got this recipe from Plated.com. We liked it well enough but the tomatoes they added (and we are leaving out) caused the ingredients to steam and we decided to tweak the recipe. Lomo Saltado is a traditional Peruvian dish, typically with thinly sliced steak, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, and French fries. Often flavored with soy sauce, lomo saltado reflects the strong Chinese influence in Peruvian culture.
