Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lean sirloin steak
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Start by trimming any excess fat from the sirloin steak and then cut the steak into bite-sized cubes, approximately 1-inch pieces.
In a large bowl, combine the steak bites with the low-sodium soy sauce, black pepper, and salt. Toss well to coat the meat evenly and let it marinate for about 5 minutes.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the steak bites in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. This may need to be done in batches depending on the size of your skillet.
Sear the steak bites for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are nicely browned. Avoid moving them too much to get a good sear.
Remove the steak bites from the skillet and set them aside on a plate covered with foil to keep warm.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the minced garlic. Sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the unsalted butter to the skillet and stir until it is melted and mixed with the garlic.
Return the steak bites to the skillet, tossing them to coat completely in the garlic butter sauce.
Stir in the chopped fresh parsley, ensuring that it's evenly distributed.
Serve the garlic butter steak bites immediately on a platter, optionally garnished with additional parsley.
