 Print This Recipe

Serves 3-4

Ingredients:

• 1 pound top sirloin steak, cut into bite sized cubes (not too small!)
• 1 tsp. smoked paprika
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 1 tbs. vegetable or canola oil
• 3 tbs. low sodium tamari
• 1/4 cup water
• 4 fresh garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tbs. honey
• 1 tbs. sesame oil, plain or toasted
• 1 tbs. rice vinegar
• 1 1/2 tbs. cornstarch
• Optional garnishes: sliced green shallots and sesame seeds

Directions:
Season the cubed beef with the paprika, salt and pepper and set aside. You can prepare this earlier and leave in the fridge until ready to cook!

Add the tamari, water, minced garlic, honey, sesame oil, rice vinegar and cornstarch in a small mixing bowl and whisk until combined and smooth.

Heat the oil in a wok pan or a large skillet on medium/medium high heat, add the seasoned beef and cook for 3-4 minutes, until browned and cooked through.

Stir the sauce and then pour into the pan and mix with the browned beef cubes. Lower the heat and stir until the sauce thickens and let simmer for a few minutes.

Sprinkle with sliced green shallots and sesame seeds and serve over rice or noodles.
