1. In a bowl, mix together condensed milk, lime juice OR limeade (I use the limeade because I like the extra bit of punch), and grated lime zest.
2. In a separate bowl, mix Graham Cracker Crumbs, sugar and butter. I use room temperature butter. No need to melt the butter. It mixes nicely at room temp.
3. Scoop 2 tbps of crumb mixture into parfait cups and press firmly to form the base/crust.
4. Add 2 tbsp of key lime mixture.
5. Add a layer of whipped cream.
6. If you wish, you can add another layer of crumbs, key lime mixture, whipped cream, or keep it sweet and simple.
7. To garnish, I just added a sprinkle of Graham Cracker crumbs and a slice of lime.
8. Chill for 2 hrs+.  I chill mine in the refrigerator overnight to make sure everything is solidified.  The first time I made this, I was so impatient and we wanted to dig in. The result was more like a key lime soup! Note to self: Make sure you chill the key lime dessert long enough!

1. Slice beef into thin strips. Season beef with freshly ground black pepper.
2. In a large bowl, mix together the garlic, soy sauce, and lemon juice.
3. Marinate meat in soy/garlic/lemon juice mixture. Overnight is best, but if you're short on time, at least 30 minutes.
4. In a skillet, heat cooking oil (enough to cover the bottom of the skillet) and stir fry the onion 'rings' until slightly soft and slightly golden. Make sure not to overcook them. Remove from skillet and set aside.
5. Using the same skillet you cooked the onions in, pan fry the strips of beef.  It's best to cook in small batches. 
6. Once all the meat has been cooked, return to skillet. Let cook for a few minutes in the sauce. If you need to add more soy or lemon juice, add according to your taste.  I don't like my Bistek too salty and prefer it on the sour/lemony side.
7. Place beef slices on a serving plate with onion rings arranged on top of meat. 
8. Pour remaining sauce over Bistek and serve with rice (and whatever vegetables you'd like on the side). In true Filipino style, spoon sauce over rice and eat!
