Sticky Honey Garlic Beef

Sticky Honey Garlic Beef is such an amazing and easy dish that you can pull together in just 20 minutes. The sauce is so good, sticky and sweet that you will lick your fingers clean. You can add more red pepper flakes for a spicier kick. The fresh ginger adds such refreshing flavor that combines so well with the sweetness from the honey.

The beef is browned to perfection, and after that its simmered in the sauce until it thickens. Serve this delicious homemade dish over rice or noodles with some veggies on the side.

Sticky Honey Garlic Beef Recipe Tips:

  • I like to use flank steak for this recipe, cut it into strips across the grain. Make sure you use high quality and fresh meat.
  • Use freshly grated ginger, it will add amazing flavor to the meal.
  • Also, make sure the oil is hot prior to frying. The best way to test if the oil is hot, add a small piece of beef into it. It should sizzle right away. This way you know it's ready to fry.
  • You can use more or less garlic in this recipe, based on your preference.
  • Red pepper flakes – you can use more if you would like the meal to be spicier.
  • If you don't have sesame oil on hand, use canola or vegetable oil.
  • Similarly, if you don't have hot Chinese mustard on hand, you can skip it.
  • Worcestershire sauce will enhance the beef flavor, I recommend using it.
  • The Sticky Orange Beef is best served over rice with veggies on the side.

Prevent your screen from going dark

  • Slice the flank steak into 2 inch chunks or into longer, thinner strips across the grain.

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together: soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, grated ginger, hot Chinese mustard, red pepper flakes, minced garlic and honey. Whisk to combine and set aside.

  • Add sesame oil to a medium cast iron pan over medium-high heat.

  • Once the oil starts to simmer, add the sliced flank steak in one layer. Let it brown nicely for 1-2 minutes without turning it, after that, using tongs to turn beef on the other side to brown for another 2-3 minutes.

  • Reduce heat to low-medium and add the sauce to the pan. Stir to combine and let the sauce simmer on low heat for about 5 minutes until it reduces in about half and it creates a sticky glaze.

  • Serve the beef over rice. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
