Here’s a simple and delicious Garlic Butter Steak Bites recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb sirloin steak (or ribeye), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tsp fresh thyme or rosemary, chopped (optional)
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Steak:
- Season the steak bites generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Cook the Steak Bites:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
- Once the oil is hot and shimmering, add the steak bites in a single layer. Sear them for about 2-3 minutes per side, until a nice crust forms. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Remove the steak bites from the skillet and set them aside.
- Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Let it melt, then add the minced garlic.
- Cook the garlic for about 1 minute, stirring constantly, until fragrant (be careful not to burn it).
- Stir in the thyme or rosemary (if using).
- Coat the Steak Bites:
- Return the steak bites to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter sauce, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, just to heat through.
- Serve:
- Remove the steak bites from the heat and garnish with fresh parsley. Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
