Ingredients

• 500 g Lean beef (sirloin or tenderloin)
• 3 tbsp Low-sodium soy sauce
• 2 tbsp Lemon juice
• 1 tbsp Honey
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tsp Ground cumin
• 1 tsp Smoked paprika
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 1 tsp Olive oil (optional, for searing)
• 1 tbsp Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Trim any visible fat from the beef and cut it into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1 inch in size.

Step 2

In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, lemon juice, honey, minced garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, and black pepper to create the marinade.

Step 3

Add the beef cubes to the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for extra flavor.

Step 4

Remove the marinated beef from the fridge and allow it to come to room temperature for about 10 minutes before cooking.

Step 5

Heat a large non-stick pan or skillet over medium-high heat. If desired, add 1 teaspoon of olive oil to the pan to prevent sticking, though the recipe is designed to be low fat and this step is optional.

Step 6

Add the beef cubes to the hot pan in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, turning occasionally, until the beef is browned and cooked to your desired doneness (internal temperature should reach 63°C or 145°F for medium rare).

Step 7

Transfer the cooked beef bites to a plate and let them rest for 3-5 minutes to retain their juices.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy these low-fat succulent beef bites as they are, or pair with a light dipping sauce or side salad.
