Ingredients
Scale
Steak and Marinade
- 1 pound sirloin or NY strip steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon honey
Vegetables and Aromatics
- 8 ounces white mushrooms, sliced
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 2 zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch sticks
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
Oils and Butter
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons butter, divided
Garnish
- Sesame seeds
- Sliced green onions
Instructions
- Season and Sear Steak: Season the steak pieces generously with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Cook the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your preference. Remove the steak from the pan and set aside.
- Sauté Mushrooms and Onions: In the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil and the teaspoon of sesame oil. Add sliced mushrooms and onions, sautéing them for about 4-5 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized.
- Add Zucchini: Incorporate the zucchini sticks into the pan with the mushrooms and onions. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the zucchini is tender-crisp.
- Sauté Garlic in Butter: Push the cooked vegetables to one side of the pan. On the empty side, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and add the minced garlic. Sauté the garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute, being careful not to burn.
- Create Sauce and Combine: In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, and honey. Pour this sauce into the pan with the vegetables and garlic, stirring to combine all ingredients.
- Return Steak and Simmer: Return the cooked steak pieces to the pan. Stir everything well to coat the steak and vegetables in the sauce. Let simmer for about 1-2 minutes until the sauce slightly thickens.
- Finish and Garnish: Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter for a silky finish. Remove from heat, garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions, and serve immediately.
Notes
- Use a high smoke point oil like vegetable oil to properly sear the steak without burning.
- Cut vegetables evenly to ensure uniform cooking.
- Adjust honey amount to balance the soy sauce saltiness to your taste.
- This dish pairs well with steamed rice or fried rice for a complete meal.
- For thicker sauce, allow it to reduce a little longer during simmering time.
