💡 Tips for Perfect Steak Bites
- Pat the steak very dry for better browning.
- Don’t overcrowd the pan — do in batches if needed.
- Adjust honey vs soy sauce for sweeter or saltier flavor.
- For extra flavor, add a splash of Worcestershire sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
If you want, I can also give you a slow-cooker version that makes the steak extra tender and keeps the honey garlic sauce rich and saucy.
