Garlic Butter Steak Bites Juicy and Flavorful Dish
Ingredients
- 1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- to taste salt and pepper
- for garnish fresh parsley, chopped
Instructions
- Start by seasoning the steak bites generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak bites in a single layer, taking care not to overcrowd the pan.
- Sear the steak bites for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they develop a nice, brown crust. You might need to do this in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
- Once cooked to your desired level of doneness, remove the steak bites from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Allow it to melt before adding the minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Stir continuously for about 1-2 minutes until the garlic is fragrant but not browned.
- Return the steak bites to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter sauce until they are fully coated. Cook for another minute to allow the flavors to meld.
- Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
💡 Chef's Notes
Serve the garlic butter steak bites in a cast-iron skillet for a rustic look, or on a wooden cutting board. Pair with toothpicks or skewers for easy serving, and garnish with extra fresh herbs for a pop of color.
