🛒 Ingredients

For the Roasted Potatoes:

  • 4 medium Yukon gold or red potatoes, diced

  • 2 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 tsp garlic powder

  • ½ tsp paprika

  • Salt & black pepper to taste

For the Honey Beef:

  • 1 lb (450g) beef sirloin or flank steak, thinly sliced

  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ cup soy sauce

  • 3 tbsp honey

  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar

  • 1 tsp sesame oil (optional for depth)

  • 1 tsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water (to thicken)

  • Green onions & sesame seeds for garnish

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Roast the Potatoes

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Toss diced potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Spread evenly on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crisp.

(Tip: Start the beef while the potatoes roast to save time.)

2. Prepare the Honey Beef Sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, vinegar, sesame oil, and cornstarch slurry. Set aside.

3. Cook the Beef

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Add beef slices and sear for 2–3 minutes per side, until browned.
Add garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

4. Glaze the Beef

Pour the honey soy mixture into the skillet and toss with the beef.
Cook for 2–3 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the meat beautifully.

5. Assemble & Serve

Serve honey beef over the roasted potatoes or alongside them.
Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds for a pop of freshness.

🌿 Serving Suggestions

  • Pair with a crisp cucumber salad or steamed broccoli.

  • Drizzle extra honey soy glaze over everything for added flavor.

  • Want heat? Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of sriracha.

💡 Pro Tips

  1. Slice beef thinly against the grain for tenderness.

  2. Preheat your skillet well — high heat locks in juices and caramelizes the honey.

  3. Don’t overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if needed for perfect sear.

❄️ Storage & Reheating

  • Fridge: Store in an airtight container up to 3 days.

  • Reheat: Warm in a skillet with a splash of water to revive the glaze.

  • Freezer: Freeze cooked beef for up to 2 months; thaw overnight before reheating.
