Irresistible Garlic Butter Steak Bites
Ingredients:
- 2 pounds of steak (e.g., beef tenderloin), cut into bite-size pieces
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup butter
- ¼ cup white wine
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground pepper
Directions:
- Begin by cutting your preferred steak into bite-sized pieces. I opted for beef tenderloin, but you can use NY Strip or Ribeye for variation. Sprinkle the steak with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Heat a spacious cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add olive oil and sear all sides of the steak. Avoid overcrowding the pan to ensure proper searing instead of steaming. Once seared and reaching your preferred temperature (around 125°F), set the steak aside.
- Introduce minced garlic to the skillet, cooking for about 10 seconds to avoid browning. Pour in white wine (or beef broth) to deglaze the pan, allowing about ⅓ of the wine to evaporate while scraping up flavorful brown bits.
- Add butter and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Reintroduce the seared steak, tossing it in the butter. Garnish with chopped parsley and serve.
- Store any leftovers in the fridge for a few days or freeze them in an airtight container.
