Ingredients
1.5 pounds sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
4 tablespoons butter
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
1. Pat the steak cubes dry and season them with salt and black pepper.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Sear the steak bites in batches for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, sauté the onions until golden and soft.
5. Lower the heat and add butter. Once melted, stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
6. Return steak bites to the skillet and toss to coat in the garlic butter.
7. Sprinkle with chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
For extra flavor, add a splash of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce to the butter.
Make sure your skillet is hot before searing to get that golden crust on the steak.
