Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lb. beef sirloin steak or beef of choice cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp chili paste
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Cut beef into bite-sized pieces
  • In a medium bowl mix 4 cloves of minced garlic, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp honey, and 1 tbsp chili paste in a bowl. Add the beef to the bowl and toss to coat evenly with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or overnight.
  • When ready to cook, drizzle olive oil in a cast iron skillet or frying pan and preheat over medium-high heat. Make sure your pan is good and hot! Remove the beef from the marinade and discard the excess marinade.
  • Cook the meat for 2-3 minutes per side or until cooked to your desired level of doneness. Serve the sweet and spicy steak bites over hot rice, noodles, or as an appetizer.

Notes

    • Use tongs to add the marinated pieces to the skillet, shaking off any excess marinade before adding them to the pan.
    • Cook the steak pieces for 2-3 minutes per side or until they develop a dark crust and are cooked to your desired level of doneness.
    • Be careful not to overcrowd the pan, which can cause the beef to steam instead of sear.
