Steps:
- Cut steak lengthwise in half, forming two 2- to 3-inch-wide strips. Cut each strip into 2- to 3-inch triangles.

Steps:
- Cut the steak lengthwise in half and slice each half across at an angle into 2 inch wide triangles.
- Combine 2 tbsp olive oil, garlic, sugar, soy sauce, thyme and 2 tsp harissa sauce into a zip bag (or large bowl) and add beef. Close the bag and mix by squeezing the bag with your fingers to coat all the beef pieces (or toss in bowl to coat each piece and cover). Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate at least 2 hours (or up to overnight), mixing occasionally.
- Drain the beef. Divide and cook in two batches in a large skillet (or cook them in two skillets simultaneously - preferred). Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the skillet and heat on high. Add beef, taking care not to overcrowd. Cook until well browned on all sides for a total of 6 - 7 minutes for medium rare.
- Whisk 2 tbsp olive oil, 1 tbsp harissa and 2 tbsp water in a small bowl to blend. Season this sauce with salt.
- Drizzle sauce over the steak tips and serve.
Tips:
- For the best flavor, marinate the top sirloin tips in the harissa marinade for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- If you don't have time to marinate the top sirloin tips, you can still cook them by following the recipe instructions, but the flavor will not be as intense.
- To ensure that the top sirloin tips are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The steak should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 170 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Serve the top sirloin tips with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
Conclusion:
This harissa-marinated top sirloin tips recipe is a quick and easy way to prepare a flavorful and juicy steak. The harissa marinade infuses the steak with a vibrant and slightly spicy flavor, and the tips are cooked to perfection in a hot skillet. Serve the steak with your favorite sides for a delicious and satisfying meal.
