Description

Tender steak bites coated in a glossy, garlicky glaze that’s equal parts sweet, savory, and spicy. This fast, flavor-packed dish is perfect for weeknights, party platters, or tossing over rice for an unforgettable dinner bowl.


Ingredients

Scale

1 lb sirloin or flank steak, cut into bite-sized pieces

¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce

¼ cup brown sugar

2 tbsp honey

2 tbsp fresh minced garlic

1 tbsp fresh grated ginger

1 tbsp sesame oil

1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)

Salt & black pepper, to taste

Green onions & sesame seeds, for garnish


Instructions

Season the Steak: Pat steak dry and season with salt and pepper.

Sear the Meat: Heat sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak pieces until browned and just cooked through (about 5–6 minutes). Remove from pan and set aside.

Make the Sauce: In the same pan, lower heat. Add soy sauce, brown sugar, honey, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes. Simmer 3–4 minutes until it bubbles and thickens slightly.

Glaze the Steak: Return steak to pan and toss to coat in the sticky sauce. Cook for 1–2 minutes more until caramelized and glossy.

Garnish & Serve: Top with sliced green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot as is or over rice, noodles, or veggies.
