Instructions
Prepare the beef: Add the diced beef to a large bowl with cornstarch, salt, and pepper. Mix to evenly coat all the beef pieces.
Cook the beef: Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Melt the butter into the oil, then add the seasoned beef cubes. Cook on all sides until golden brown, about 6–8 minutes. You may need to work in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan, which can steam instead of sear the beef.

Make the sauce: Once the beef is cooked, pour in the garlic, honey, beef stock, lemon juice, and hot sauce (if using). Stir to coat the beef completely. Allow the sauce to simmer for a couple of minutes until it thickens and clings to the beef.
Garnish and serve: Sprinkle the beef with chopped parsley and red chili flakes. Serve over rice with steamed broccoli. Enjoy!
Notes
You can replace hot sauce with chili paste or skip it altogether for a milder version.
