Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper and sear for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until desired doneness. Remove steak and set aside.
  2. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add 4 minced garlic cloves and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant. Pour in honey, soy sauce, and Dijon mustard, stirring well. Let simmer for about 2 minutes.
  3. Add 1 cup of uncooked rice, stirring to coat. Pour in 2 cups of beef broth and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to low, cover, and let simmer for 15 minutes.
  4. Once cooked, fluff rice with a fork and add seared steak back to the skillet, stirring gently. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and coated with sauce.
  5. Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve warm directly from the skillet.
