Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound beef sirloin, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup long grain white rice, uncooked
  • 2 cups low sodium beef broth
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/4 cup green onions, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, beef broth, and cornstarch until smooth.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced beef and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add minced garlic and diced red bell pepper. Cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Stir in the uncooked rice, coating it in the pan juices.
  5. Pour in the honey garlic sauce mixture and bring to a gentle simmer.
  6. Cover and cook for 15 to 18 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
  7. Return the cooked beef to the skillet and stir to combine. Season with salt and black pepper if needed.
  8. Sprinkle sliced green onions and sesame seeds over the top before serving.

Notes

  • Sear the beef in batches if necessary to prevent steaming.
  • Keep the heat at medium to avoid burning the honey.
  • Add a splash of broth when reheating to keep the rice moist.
