Ingredients
Main ingredients
- 1 lb steak (sirloin or ribeye), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Method
Preparation and Cooking
- Season the steak pieces: Lightly season the bite-sized steak pieces with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Melt the butter: In a skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium-high heat until it starts to foam.
- Sauté the garlic: Add the minced garlic to the skillet, cooking for about 30 seconds until fragrant but not burned.
- Cook the steak bites: Carefully add the seasoned steak bites to the skillet and cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are browned and cooked to your preferred level of doneness.
- Garnish and serve: Remove the skillet from the heat, sprinkle with fresh parsley, and serve the steak bites immediately while they’re hot and juicy.
Notes
Ingredient substitutions: Use different cuts of beef, like filet mignon or flank steak, if preferred. For a lighter option, consider using chicken or shrimp instead. Optional variations: Add a splash of Worcestershire sauce for extra flavor or some red pepper flakes for a spicy kick. You could also toss in some mushrooms or bell peppers to the skillet for additional texture. Leftover steak bites can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently warm them in a skillet over low heat to maintain their tenderness.
