What you'll need

Cast iron skillet — Sears better than any non-stick; naturally non-stick once seasoned.
Enameled Dutch oven — For braises, roasts, and one-pot mains.
Instant-read thermometer — The only reliable way to nail doneness without guessing.

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the coconut aminos, manuka honey, apple cider vinegar, toasted sesame oil, minced garlic, and grated ginger.
Add the thinly sliced beef to the marinade, ensuring every piece is thoroughly coated. Let it marinate for 30 minutes.
Heat the organic avocado oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Remove the beef from the marinade (keep the liquid) and sear the meat in batches until browned on both sides.
Return all the beef to the pan, pour in the reserved marinade, and bring it to a full boil; simmer for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly.
Serve the beef over steamed jasmine rice, garnished with sliced scallions, sesame seeds, and red pepper flakes.

FAQ

Can I use regular honey instead of manuka honey for this recipe?

While you can use regular raw honey, manuka honey provides a unique flavor profile and antibacterial properties that are beneficial for health. Use it if possible.

Is there a substitute for tamari for those who cannot have soy?

For individuals avoiding soy, you could use a gluten-free tamari alternative like Bragg's Liquid Aminos or coconut aminos, though the flavor will differ slightly.
