Description
Tender steak bites seared to perfection and coated in a rich garlic butter and Parmesan cream sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound sirloin steak, trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Chopped fresh parsley, for garnish (optional)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Optional seasoning: pinch of crushed red pepper flakes or lemon zest
Instructions
- Start by prepping your steak. Trim any excess fat and cut your sirloin into bite-sized pieces. Season the steak generously with salt and pepper.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter over medium-high heat. Add the steak bites in a single layer. Sear them for about 2-3 minutes on each side until brown.
- Once done, remove the steak and let it rest while preparing the sauce.
- In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the remaining butter. Once melted, add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds.
- Now, slowly pour in the heavy cream while stirring constantly. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken.
- Reduce the heat to low and incorporate the Parmesan cheese, stirring until it melts completely.
- Add the seared steak bites back into the creamy sauce, tossing to coat. Warm them for an additional minute.
- Serve immediately, garnished with chopped parsley if desired.
Notes
For a dairy-free option, use coconut cream and nutritional yeast instead of Parmesan.
