Garlic Butter Steak Bites Recipe

Garlic Butter Steak Bites Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1.5 lbs (680g) sirloin steak or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes

• Salt and black pepper to taste

• 1 tbsp olive oil

• 3 tbsp unsalted butter

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (plus more for garnish)

• Optional: a squeeze of lemon juice for brightness

Instructions:

1. Prep the Steak:

   • Pat the steak dry with paper towels.

   • Season generously with salt and pepper on all sides.

2. Sear the Steak Bites:

   • Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

   • When hot, add steak pieces in a single layer. Don’t overcrowd the pan—work in batches if needed.

   • Sear for about 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness.

   • Remove steak from the skillet and set aside.

3. Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:

   • In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium-low.

   • Add butter and let it melt.

   • Stir in the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds to 1 minute until fragrant (don’t burn the garlic!).

   • Stir in chopped parsley and a dash of lemon juice if using.

4. Combine and Serve:

   • Return steak bites to the pan and toss them in the garlic butter sauce until well coated.

   • Cook for another 1-2 minutes to reheat and absorb flavors.

   • Garnish with more fresh parsley and serve hot.
