Steak
- 1 1/2 lbs. steak
- 1/2 tsp kosher salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
Miso Soy Glaze
- 1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce
- 1 1/2 Tbsp rice vinegar
- 1 1/2 Tbsp white miso paste
- 1 1/2 Tbsp honey
- 1/2-1 tsp sriracha sauce optional but recommended
- 3 cloves garlic finely minced or grated
- 1 inch piece of fresh ginger grated
- 2 Tbsp avocado or vegetable oil divided
Garnishes
- green onions sliced
- sesame seeds
- chili crisp
Prepare
Pat 1 1/2 lbs. steak dry with paper towels, then slice into 1 inch cubes. Season with 1/2 tsp kosher salt, 1/2 tsp black pepper, and 1/2 tsp garlic powder, and massage into steak cubes. Set aside.
Whisk glaze
In a small mixing bowl, add 1/4 cup reduced sodium soy sauce, 1 1/2 Tbsp rice vinegar, 1 1/2 Tbsp white miso paste, 1 1/2 Tbsp honey, 1/2-1 tsp sriracha sauce, 3 cloves garlic, and 1 inch piece of fresh ginger (grated). Whisk to combine well and set aside.
Sear steak
Heat a large heavy bottomed skillet over MED HIGH heat. Once hot, add half of the 2 Tbsp avocado or vegetable oil (so 1 Tbsp), and about half of the steak bites, adding them in a single layer, not overcrowding the pan.
Cook for 1-1.5 minutes on one side, without flipping, then flip each piece over individually and sear for another 1-1.5 minutes. Steak bites should be nice and golden brown. Remove to a plate.
Repeat with remaining avocado oil and steak bites, removing to a plate once seared.
Make glaze
Reduce heat to MED LOW and use the same skillet (don’t wash it - we want all that flavor!), then add the glaze mixture you made earlier.
Let cook about 30 seconds to a minute or so, stirring with a wooden spoon to loosen browned bits from the skillet, then add all the seared steak bites back to the skillet.
Finish and serve
Cook, stirring often, for about another 30 seconds to a minute, so the steak bites are fully coated in the sauce and starting to get caramelized.
Serve hot, sprinkled with sesame seeds, a drizzle of chili crisp, and some sliced green onions. We like to serve this alongside some steamed rice and a green vegetable, like green beans or edamame.
