Ingredients

Scale

16 oz fettuccine or spaghetti

24 oz sirloin or ribeye steak, thinly sliced

8 cloves garlic, minced

6 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce

4 tbsp honey

2 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)

4 tbsp fresh parsley or basil, chopped

4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Salt and pepper to taste


Instructions

Cook the Pasta: Boil pasta in salted water until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Sear the Steak: In a hot skillet, heat 2 tbsp olive oil. Season steak with salt and pepper. Cook in batches for 2–3 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside.

Make the Sauce: In the same pan, add remaining olive oil and garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds, then stir in soy sauce, honey, and red pepper flakes. Simmer for 1–2 minutes.

Combine: Toss cooked pasta into the sauce, then return steak to the pan. Mix well to coat.

Garnish & Serve: Sprinkle with fresh herbs and extra chili flakes if you like it hot. Serve immediately.
