Ingredients
- 500 grams Lean beef sirloin
- 1 cup Pineapple chunks
- 0.25 cup Low-sodium soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, freshly grated
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 whole Green onions, chopped
- 2 cups Brown rice, cooked
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds

Instructions
Trim any visible fat from the beef sirloin and cut it into thin strips.
In a bowl, combine low-sodium soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, grated ginger, and minced garlic. Add the beef strips to this marinade, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
While the beef is marinating, heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the red bell pepper slices to the skillet and sauté for 3-4 minutes until slightly tender.
Remove the beef from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later.
Add the beef strips to the skillet, cooking for 4-5 minutes or until they are browned and cooked through.
Add the reserved marinade and pineapple chunks to the skillet. Stir and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Season with black pepper to taste and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onions.
Serve the beef mixture over a bed of cooked brown rice and garnish with fresh cilantro.
