Tips for Making Sriracha Honey Soy Steak Bowls

  1. No matter what steaks you use, give them at least 4-6 hours to marinade. You can even marinade them over night or for up to 2 days. The longer they marinate, the more flavor they will have.
  2. You want to cut the vegetables nice and thin. This makes for a more enjoyable eating experience. I like to use a peeler and created ribbons with my carrots and cucumbers.
  3. When cooking your steak, make sure not to over cook it! If you are using wild game meat of any kind, you want to remove the steak from the pan when it hit 120F-130F Internal temp. If you cook it passed 130F it can get tough , and become more “gamey” tasting.

Sriracha Honey Soy Steak Bowl Ingredients

Steak– This can be any kind of steak you have. Venison, moose, elk, beef etc.

Rice– I like jasmine rice or sushi rice for these bowls.

Vegetables– You can use a variety of whatever you like. My suggestions would be carrots, cucumber, peppers, cabbage, or avocado.

Soy Sauce– Use a gluten free tamari if you need.

Sesame Oil– Make sure to be careful when you measure this as it can become over powering if you use too much.

Honey– This adds a nice touch of sweetness to balance the salty soy. Can use maple syrup if you prefer.

Rice Vinegar- You want this to add a bit of acidity to the marinade to help the steak stay tender.

Ginger & Garlic– These are the aromatics in the marinade. Use fresh of both.

Mayo– You need this to give you a creamy sriracha sauce. You can use homemade mayo, regular or kewpie mayo.

Sriracha– If you don’t like spice, use just 1 tbsp of this and if you like a bit of a kick, you can use 2 tbsp.

Lime– Fresh squeeze lime juice adds a nice hint of tang to the sauce.

The Steps

  1. Start by whisking together all of the marinade ingredients excluding the steak.
  2. Next, place the steak in a bowl or large ziplock bag. Pour the marinade over the steak, making sure to coat all sides of the steaks in the marinade.
  3. Cover the bowl or seal the bag, and place in the refrigerator for minimum 4-6 hours or for up to 2 days.
  4. When you are ready to cook, pull the steaks out of the fridge and let them sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes.
  5. While the steaks warm up, add all of the sriracha mayo sauce ingredients to a jar or small bowl and whisk until smooth.
  6. Then, heat a cast iron or carbon steel pan over high heat with a couple tbsp of oil, ghee or tallow.
  7. Once the pan is nice and hot, add the steaks and sear for 4-5 minutes per side or until internal temp reaches 120F for rare and 130F for medium rare.
  8. Remove the steaks from the pan and let rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing thin.
  9. Finally, put together the bowls by adding a bed of rice to each bowl, followed by the fresh vegetables, the sliced steak, a drizzle of the sriracha mayo and a sprinkle of green onions and sesame seeds.
  10. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

* The cook time on the steaks will totally vary depending on how think they are and what animal they are from. I always recommend using an instant read thermometer. These thermapens are my favorite, I have several of them.

* You can swap out or add any other vegetables you like to these bowls.

* The longer you let the meat marinade, the more flavor it will have. I always like to marinade over night if I can with wild game meat.
