Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 lb sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced (fresh)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari/coconut aminos for gluten-free)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Optional Ingredients

  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steak: Cut your chosen steak into uniform bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking. Lightly season with salt and black pepper for foundational flavor.
  2. Heat the Pan: Warm olive oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet until hot enough to sear steak bites without steaming.
  3. Sear the Steak Bites: Add steak pieces in a single layer (work in batches if needed). Cook undisturbed for 2-3 minutes on one side until golden brown, then flip.
  4. Make the Honey Garlic Sauce: Reduce heat to medium. Add minced garlic to the pan and cook until fragrant but not burnt. Stir in honey and soy sauce, allowing the sauce to bubble and thicken, coating the steak bites evenly.
  5. Combine and Serve: Toss steak bites thoroughly in the sauce so each piece is generously glazed. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and green onions if desired, then serve immediately.

Notes

  • Use high heat to achieve a flavorful sear and lock in juices.
  • Cook steak bites in batches to avoid overcrowding and ensure proper searing.
  • Freshly minced garlic is essential for the best aromatic flavor.
  • Allow the sauce to reduce to get a perfect glaze consistency.
  • Let steak bites rest a few minutes before serving to maintain tenderness.
