Ingredients
Scale
For the Steak Bites
- 1 lb (450g) sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: chopped fresh parsley for garnish
For the Parmesan Cream Sauce
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 2 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ½ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- Optional: pinch of red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Prep the steak: Pat your steak cubes dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Sear the steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak in batches, searing for 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Remove from pan and set aside.
- Make the garlic butter: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Melt butter, then add garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Add steak back in and toss to coat.
- Prepare the Parmesan cream sauce: In a separate saucepan, melt butter and sauté garlic for 30 seconds. Add heavy cream, bring to a simmer, and stir in Parmesan until smooth.
- Serve: Pour the sauce over the steak bites or serve on the side. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
- Storage Tips: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Reheating Tips: Reheat gently on the stovetop with a splash of cream or milk to loosen the sauce.
- Variations: Add sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or crispy bacon for extra flavor.
