Trim any visible fat from the beef sirloin and cut it into thin strips, about 1/2 inch wide.
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, lemon juice, minced garlic, honey, black pepper, paprika, and olive oil to prepare the marinade.
Add the beef strips into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to mingle.
Preheat a non-stick grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the pan is hot, remove the beef strips from the marinade, shaking off excess liquid. Place them onto the grill pan in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook the beef for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked to your desired level of doneness.
While cooking, occasionally brush some of the remaining marinade over the beef for extra flavor.
Remove the cooked beef from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes.
Garnish with fresh parsley and thyme before serving.
Serve hot with your choice of low-fat side dishes such as steamed vegetables or a simple green salad.
