Step 1
Whisk gochujang, soy sauce, honey, garlic, and sesame oil in a small bowl until smooth.
Step 2
Heat a large skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Working in two batches, sear beef 60 seconds per side without stirring.
Step 3
Return all beef to the skillet. Pour the sauce over and toss to coat evenly.
Step 4
Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce reduces and beef is glossy and caramelized, about 5 minutes.
Step 5
Serve immediately while the glaze is still hot and sticky.
