Instructions
Creating Sticky Honey Garlic Beef is straightforward when you follow these simple steps:
1. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Add the sliced beef and toss to coat. Allow it to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
2. Prepare the Pan: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the Beef: Remove the beef from the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off. Add the beef to the hot skillet in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing it to sear until browned. Flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
4. Make the Sauce: In the same skillet, add the remaining marinade. Bring it to a simmer. In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Add this slurry to the skillet, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens.
5. Add Flavor: Drizzle sesame oil over the beef and toss to combine, ensuring the beef is well coated in the sticky sauce.
6. Garnish: Remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
7. Rest: Allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes.
8. Serve: Serve hot over rice or noodles, or alongside your favorite vegetables.
