Ingredients

  • 500 grams Lean beef sirloin
  • 60 ml Soy sauce, low sodium
  • 30 ml Lemon juice
  • 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
  • 15 ml Honey
  • 1 teaspoon Ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon Paprika
  • 15 ml Olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Trim any visible fat from the beef sirloin and cut it into thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide.

Step 2

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, honey, black pepper, paprika, and olive oil to prepare the marinade.

Step 3

Add the beef strips into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to mingle.

Step 4

Preheat a non-stick grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Once the pan is hot, remove the beef strips from the marinade, shaking off excess liquid. Place them onto the grill pan in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.

Step 6

Cook the beef for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked to your desired level of doneness.

Step 7

While cooking, occasionally brush some of the remaining marinade over the beef for extra flavor.

Step 8

Remove the cooked beef from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes.

Step 9

Garnish with fresh parsley and thyme before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot with your choice of low-fat side dishes such as steamed vegetables or a simple green salad.
