  1. 1

    Toast the Sesame Seeds

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat. Add sesame seeds to hot, dry pan. Toast until fragrant, 3-5 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Transfer seeds to a plate. Wipe pan clean and reserve.

    While seeds toast, continue recipe.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    Bring a small pot with rice, half the sesame oil (reserve remaining for sauce), 1/4 tsp. salt, and 1 1/4 cups water to a boil.

    Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 15-18 minutes.

    Remove from burner. Stir in toasted sesame seeds and set aside.

    While rice cooks, continue recipe.

  3. 3

    Prepare Ingredients and Make Sauce

    Remove stem, seeds, and ribs, and cut bell pepper into 1/4" strips.

    Trim and thinly slice green onions, keeping white and green portions separate.

    In a mixing bowl, combine honey, soy sauce, 2 Tbsp. water, and remaining sesame oil. Set aside.

    Pat steak strips dry. Coarsely chop, then separate pieces. In another mixing bowl, combine steak strips and cornstarch. Gently toss to coat.

  4. 4

    Cook the Vegetables

    Return pan used to toast sesame seeds to medium-high heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add white portions of green onions and bell peppers to hot pan. Stir occasionally until tender, 5-7 minutes.

    Transfer vegetables to a plate. Keep pan over medium-high heat.

  5. 5

    Cook Steak and Finish Dish

    Add 1 Tbsp. olive oil and steak strips to hot pan. Stir occasionally until browned, 2-3 minutes.

    Add sauce, Asian garlic, ginger & chile seasoning (use less if spice-averse), and 1/4 tsp. salt. Bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sauce has thickened and steak reaches a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees, 2-3 minutes.

    Add vegetables and stir to coat. Remove from burner. Rest, 3 minutes.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card, topping rice with steak mixture and garnishing with green portions of green onions. Bon appétit!
