Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Sirloin steak or ribeye steak
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- 1 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the steak and cut it into bite-sized cubes, roughly 1-inch pieces.
In a small bowl, mix together the salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika. Rub this seasoning mixture all over the steak cubes to coat them evenly.
Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and let it heat until shimmering.
Add half of the steak cubes to the skillet in a single layer. Ensure you do not overcrowd the pan. Sear the cubes for 2 minutes on one side, without touching them, to develop a deep brown crust.
Flip the steak cubes and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on the other side, depending on your desired doneness. Remove the cooked steak bites from the skillet and set them aside on a plate. Repeat the process with the remaining steak cubes, adding the remaining tablespoon of olive oil as needed.
Reduce the skillet heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Return all the steak bites to the skillet, tossing them in the garlic butter to coat evenly. Let them warm up in the pan for another 1-2 minutes.
Transfer the steak bites to a serving plate and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
