Hot Honey Sauce
- In a small mixing bowl, combine hot honey, soy sauce, and red pepper flakes. Stir well to ensure even mixing.
- Pour the hot honey sauce into the skillet with the beef. Stir to coat the meat evenly, and allow it to simmer for 2-3 minutes.

- Garnish each bowl with sliced scallions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately for the best flavor.
