Firecracker Steak Bites are tender sirloin cubes marinated in a spicy sweet sauce, offering a delightful explosion of flavor in every bite.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup hot sauce (like Frank’s RedHot)
  • 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions and sesame seeds for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cut steak into bite-sized cubes and pat dry with paper towels. Toss with cornstarch, salt, and pepper.
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear steak bites in batches for about 2 minutes per side. Set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, melt butter and stir in brown sugar, hot sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes. Simmer 3–5 minutes.
  4. Return steak bites to skillet and toss to coat. Cook 1–2 more minutes to meld flavors.
  5. Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds. Serve hot.

Notes

  • Patting the steak dry helps achieve a great sear.
  • Adjust spice level by reducing hot sauce or omitting red pepper flakes.
  • Serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
