Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound sirloin steak (cut into bite-sized pieces)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
  • Salt and pepper (to taste)
  • Optional: pinch of red pepper flakes for some heat

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cutting the sirloin steak into bite-sized pieces. Pat them dry with a paper towel, then season generously with salt and pepper.
Cooking
  1. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat. Allow it to get hot but not smoking.
  2. Add the steak bites in a single layer, ensuring they’re not overcrowded. Sear them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until they develop a nice crust and are cooked to your desired doneness.
  3. Once the steak bites are cooked, lower the heat and add the remaining butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the garlic to become fragrant without burning.
Garnishing and Serving
  1. Stir in the chopped parsley and, if desired, a pinch of red pepper flakes for heat. Serve immediately, and get ready to indulge!

Notes

To enhance flavor, consider topping with fresh herbs or serving with side dishes like creamy mashed potatoes. These bites can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
