  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme

Instructions

  1. Remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes to ensure even cooking.

  2. Add the sliced sirloin steak to the skillet, spreading it out in a single layer to ensure even cooking. Cook for 3 minutes without stirring to allow a sear to form.
  3. Flip the steak slices and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  4. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and the minced garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add the asparagus pieces to the skillet, stirring to coat with the garlic and oil. Cook for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the asparagus is bright green and slightly tender.
  6. Return the cooked steak to the skillet with the asparagus. Add soy sauce, black pepper, and salt. Stir everything together and cook for 1 more minute to combine the flavors.
  7. Remove from heat and let it rest for 2 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.

Every bite of this stir-fry offers a delightful contrast between the tender, juicy steak and the crisp, vibrant asparagus. Serve it over a bed of steamed rice or alongside a light salad for a complete meal that feels both nourishing and indulgent.
