  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 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

  1. Prep the steak: Pat steak cubes dry and season generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Sear the steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak in batches, searing 2–3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
  3. Make the garlic butter: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Melt butter, add garlic, sauté 30 seconds, then toss steak to coat.
  4. Prepare Parmesan cream sauce: In a separate saucepan, melt butter, sauté garlic 30 seconds, add heavy cream, bring to simmer, stir in Parmesan until smooth.
  5. Serve: Pour sauce over steak bites or serve on the side. Garnish with parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • Reheat gently on stovetop with a splash of cream or milk to loosen sauce.
  • Variations: Add sautéed mushrooms, spinach, or crispy bacon for extra flavor.
