Savory Herb-Crusted Beef Stir Fry
Ingredients
Method
- In a bowl, toss the beef slices with rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper until well coated; set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef slices in a single layer and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until crust forms. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Stir fry broccoli, bell peppers, and sugar snap peas for 5 minutes until just tender.
- Return the beef to the skillet. Add soy sauce and honey, stirring thoroughly to coat all ingredients. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and the sauce slightly thickens.
- Serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles if desired. Enjoy the combination of savory herbs and fresh veggies!

Use fresh herbs whenever possible for the most potent flavor impact. If fresh aren’t available, dried herbs will work but use about a third less as they are more concentrated.
For an added kick, finish the stir fry with a tablespoon of freshly grated ginger just before serving. It enhances the freshness and adds a subtle warmth to the dish.
