Garlic Butter Steak Bites are a flavorful and easy-to-make dish that’s perfect for a carnivore diet or any meat lover. The combination of tender steak, garlic, and rich butter creates a deliciously satisfying meal. Here’s a simple recipe to make them:
Ingredients:
- 1 lb (450g) steak (ribeye, sirloin, or your preferred cut)
- 2 tbsp unsalted butter (divided)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- Salt and pepper (to taste)
- 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for a bit of heat)
Instructions:
-
Prep the steak: Cut the steak into bite-sized cubes, about 1-inch pieces. Season with salt and pepper on all sides.
-
Cook the steak:
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Add the steak cubes to the skillet in a single layer, making sure they don’t overcrowd the pan. You may need to do this in batches if your pan isn’t large enough.
- Cook the steak bites for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are nicely browned and cooked to your desired doneness (rare, medium-rare, etc.). Remove them from the skillet and set them aside.
-
Make the garlic butter:
- In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter.
- Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
-
Toss the steak in the garlic butter:
- Return the steak bites to the skillet, tossing them in the garlic butter until they are well coated and heated through.
-
Optional: Sprinkle with red pepper flakes and fresh parsley for added flavor and garnish.
-
Serve and enjoy: Serve the garlic butter steak bites hot. They can be enjoyed on their own or paired with a simple salad, roasted vegetables, or any other side of your choice.
