🥩 Honey Garlic Steak Bites
Serves: 2–3
Prep + Cook Time: 20–25 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 lb (450 g) sirloin steak or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt & pepper to taste
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon butter (optional, for extra richness)
- Chopped parsley or green onions for garnish
Instructions
1️⃣ Prep the Steak
- Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels — this helps get a nice sear.
- Season with salt and pepper.
2️⃣ Sear the Steak
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add steak cubes in a single layer (don’t overcrowd).
- Sear 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Remove steak and set aside.
3️⃣ Make Honey Garlic Sauce
- In the same skillet, lower heat to medium.
- Add minced garlic, sauté 30–60 seconds until fragrant (don’t burn).
- Stir in honey, soy sauce, and vinegar.
- Cook 1–2 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
4️⃣ Combine
- Return steak bites to the skillet.
- Toss to coat evenly in the sauce.
- Add butter if using, and cook another minute for a glossy finish.
5️⃣ Serve
- Garnish with chopped parsley or green onions.
- Serve hot with rice, mashed potatoes, or roasted vegetables.
✅ Tips & Variations
- Extra caramelization: Sear steak in batches to avoid steaming.
- Spicy kick: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or sriracha to the sauce.
- Garlic lovers: Increase garlic to 4–5 cloves.
- Meal prep: Cooked steak bites can be stored in the fridge for 2–3 days and reheated.
If you want, I can also give a “sheet pan version” where you roast the steak and garlic sauce together for even easier cleanup.
