Description
These garlic butter steak bites are a perfect blend of tender steak and rich garlic-infused butter, making them an irresistible dish for any occasion.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ pounds sirloin steak (or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (or ½ teaspoon dried)
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary (or ½ teaspoon dried)
- 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
- Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and black pepper.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add olive oil. Once hot, add half of the steak cubes in a single layer.
- Cook for 2 minutes without moving the steak. Flip the cubes and cook for another 1–2 minutes until browned all over. Remove to a plate and repeat with the remaining steak.
- Reduce heat to medium. Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet, then stir in garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Return all steak bites to the pan, toss with the garlic butter, and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Stir until the steak is coated and glossy.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately with mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted veggies.
Notes
Ensure steak bites remain in a single layer while cooking to achieve the best sear. Rest the cooked steak for a minute before serving.
