Ingredients
  

1.5 lbs beef sirloin, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes

1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

1/2 cup beef broth

1/4 cup balsamic vinegar

1/4 cup honey

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Beef: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, honey, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and a generous pinch of salt and pepper. Add the beef cubes into the marinade, ensuring each piece is evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or ideally, overnight to enhance the flavors.

    Prepare the Blueberry Glaze: In a medium saucepan, combine the blueberries, beef broth, and a pinch of salt. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook until the blueberries begin to burst and the mixture thickens slightly, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Once thickened, remove from heat and blend the mixture until smooth using an immersion blender or transferring to a regular blender. Set aside.

      Sear the Beef: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Take the marinated beef out of the refrigerator, allowing any excess marinade to drip off. Working in batches to avoid overcrowding, sear the beef cubes in the skillet for 3-4 minutes on each side until they achieve a rich brown color. Once browned, transfer the beef to a plate and set aside.

        Glaze the Beef: Lower the heat to medium in the same skillet and add the prepared blueberry glaze to the pan drippings. Stir well to combine the flavors. Return the seared beef to the skillet, tossing it gently to coat with the glaze. Allow the beef to cook for an additional 3-5 minutes, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness and is warmed through.

          Serve: Transfer the glazed beef to a serving platter, drizzling with any extra blueberry glaze from the pan. Garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired, for a pop of color and freshness. Serve the dish hot alongside your choice of sides, such as creamy mashed potatoes or crisp sautéed green beans for a delightful meal.
