Ingredients
- 12 ounces sirloin steak
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.125 teaspoons red pepper flakes
Directions
Step 1
Pat the 12 ounces of sirloin steak dry with paper towels. Cut into 1-inch cubes and season evenly with 0.5 teaspoons of salt and 0.25 teaspoons of black pepper.
Step 2
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Step 3
Add the seasoned steak bites to the pan in a single layer, making sure not to crowd the skillet. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until a golden-brown crust forms. Work in batches if necessary.
Step 4
Remove the steak bites from the pan and set aside on a plate.
Step 5
Lower the heat to medium and add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in 2 minced cloves of garlic and 0.125 teaspoons of red pepper flakes. Cook for 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant.
Step 6
Return the steak bites to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter to coat. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, or until the steak reaches your desired doneness.
Step 7
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley over the steak bites.
Step 8
Serve immediately with your choice of side dishes, such as mashed potatoes or a crisp salad.
