  • 1.5 lbs top sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 4 cloves garlic , minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup low -sodium soy sauce

  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 cup mayonnais e
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 teaspoon toasted sesame seeds

Method
 

  1. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, and red pepper flakes to create the glaze.
  2. In a separate small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Sriracha, and lime juice. Whisk until smooth and refrigerate the dip until serving.
  3. Pat the beef cubes dry with paper towels to ensure a proper sear.
  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet or wok over high heat until it begins to shimmer.
  5. Add the beef cubes in a single layer, working in batches if necessary to avoid crowding the pan.
  6. Sear the beef for 2 minutes without moving to develop a dark crust, then flip and sear for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  7. Reduce the heat to medium-high. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  8. Pour the soy-honey mixture into the skillet and toss the beef constantly for 1-2 minutes until the liquid reduces into a thick, sticky glaze.
  9. Transfer the beef to a serving platter and garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
  10. Serve immediately with the chilled creamy chili dip on the side.
