Ingredients
1 tablespoon olive oil
1½ pounds sirloin steak, cut into bite-size pieces
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon pepper, or to taste
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, if you want a bit of heat)
1 tablespoon fresh chopped parsley
Instructions
1-First: prepare all ingredients: Cut the sirloin steak into uniform bite-sized pieces, mince the garlic, and measure out the butter and olive oil.
2-Second: heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until it’s shimmering for a quick sear.
3-Third: add the steak pieces in a single layer, avoiding overcrowding to get that golden, caramelized crust; cook about 2-3 minutes per side.
4-Fourth: reduce heat to medium, then add butter and minced garlic to the pan; toss the steak bites in the melting garlic butter to coat them evenly.
5-Fifth: season with salt and pepper to taste while stirring, letting the flavors blend for 1-2 minutes without overcooking.
6-Sixth: remove from heat and let the steak bites rest briefly to keep them juicy.
7-Final step: Serve immediately, garnished with fresh parsley; for adaptations, swap steak with tofu and adjust seasonings as needed. The total cook time is about 10 minutes, making it perfect for quick meals.
