Ingredients
- Beef (sirloin or flank steak, or chuck steak)
- Fresh garlic cloves
- Soy sauce
- Honey or brown sugar
- Olive oil
- Green onions
- Chopped parsley (optional for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Beef: Start by trimming any excess fat from your beef cuts. Slice the beef into bite-sized pieces, about 1-inch cubes.
- Marinate: In a bowl, combine minced garlic, soy sauce, honey (or brown sugar), and a tablespoon of olive oil. Add the beef bites and toss them well to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
- Heat the Pan: In a large skillet, heat the remaining olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
- Cook the Beef: Add the marinated beef bites to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked through.
- Add Green Onions: When the beef is almost done, stir in the chopped green onions and sauté for an additional minute.
- Serve: Transfer the beef bites to a serving platter and drizzle any leftover sauce from the pan over the top.
