Ingredients
- 1 pound steak (sirloin or ribeye)
- 2 cups cooked rice
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the skillet: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat until bubbly.
- Cook the steak: Season the steak with salt and pepper. Add it to the skillet and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
- Rest the steak: Remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes.
- Sauté the garlic: In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to let it burn.
- Make the sauce: Pour in the honey and soy sauce, stirring to combine the flavors.
- Combine ingredients: Chop the rested steak into bite-sized pieces and return it to the skillet. Add the cooked rice and toss everything together to thoroughly coat with the sauce.
- Heat through: Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and the rice has absorbed some of the sauce.
- Serve: Plate the dish hot, garnished with chopped green onions.
Notes
Be sure to watch the garlic carefully while sautéing to prevent burning. Adjust sauce sweetness based on your preference.
