Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb sirloin steak
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Trim excess fat from the sirloin steak and cut it into bite-sized, 1-inch cubes.
Place the steak cubes in a medium-sized bowl. Add olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and onion powder. Toss to coat the steak evenly with the seasonings.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the skillet is hot, add the butter and let it melt completely.
Place the seasoned steak nuggets in a single layer in the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on one side without moving them to develop a nice sear.
Flip the steak nuggets and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until they reach your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130-135°F (54-57°C).
Transfer the steak nuggets to a serving plate and let them rest for 2-3 minutes to retain their juices.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley, if desired, and serve immediately. Pair with your favorite dipping sauce or side dish!
