Juicy, tender steak pieces pan-seared to perfection and drenched in rich garlic butter. A quick, incredibly flavorful beef dish that hits hard and satisfies fast.
Ingredients
4 servings
Sirloin steak (or ribeye), cut into 1-inch cubes500 g
Ghee or butter60 g
Garlic, minced2 cloves
Sea salt1 tsp
Black pepper (optional)0.5 tsp
Method
1
Pat the steak cubes dry with paper towels. Season generously with sea salt and black pepper (if using). This helps achieve a good sear.
2
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until very hot.
3
Add 2 tablespoons of the ghee or butter to the hot skillet. Once melted, add the steak cubes in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. You may need to cook in batches to ensure a good sear.
4
Sear the steak for 1-2 minutes per side until a deep brown crust forms. For medium-rare, aim for about 2-3 minutes total, turning frequently. Adjust cook time for desired doneness.
5
Reduce the heat to low. Add the remaining 4 tablespoons of ghee or butter and the minced garlic to the pan. Allow the butter to melt and the garlic to become fragrant, about 30 seconds to 1 minute.
6
Carefully spoon the melted garlic butter over the steak bites for about 30 seconds, ensuring each piece is coated in the delicious sauce.
7
Remove from heat and serve immediately, letting the rich garlic butter sauce coat every bite. These are perfect on their own for a hearty, protein-packed meal.
