Notes

For a variation, try substituting chicken or tofu for beef. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 2 months. Pair with rice, noodles, or steamed veggies for a complete meal. To reduce sweetness, decrease the honey or increase the soy sauce slightly.
