Ingredients

  • 1 pound sirloin steak, cubed
  • 1 cup jasmine rice, rinsed
  • 2 cups beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (or ½ teaspoon dried)
  • 1 cup bell peppers, diced (red and yellow for color)
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • for garnish fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  2. Season the cubed steak with salt and pepper. Add the steak to the skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes, turning until browned on all sides.
  3. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add the diced bell peppers and cook for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften. Add the minced garlic and thyme, cooking for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Pour in the rinsed rice, stirring to combine it with the vegetables.
  6. Add the beef broth, honey, and soy sauce to the skillet. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover. Let it simmer for 15-18 minutes or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the liquid.
  7. Once the rice is done, stir in the seared steak and 2 tablespoons of butter. Stir everything together until well combined, allowing the butter to melt and coat the rice and steak.
  8. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
  9. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley.

💡 Chef's Notes
