Description
These garlic butter steak bites with parmesan cream sauce are juicy, tender pieces of beef seared to perfection, then tossed in a rich and creamy garlic parmesan sauce for an indulgent dinner or appetizer.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, divided
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup beef broth
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 tsp Italian seasoning
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Heat olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear steak bites in a single layer for 2–3 minutes per side, until browned and cooked to desired doneness. Remove steak and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add remaining butter and garlic. Sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Pour in heavy cream and beef broth, stirring to deglaze the pan.
- Stir in Parmesan cheese and Italian seasoning, simmering until sauce thickens slightly, about 3–4 minutes.
- Return steak bites to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce.
- Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Notes
- For best sear, cook steak in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan.
- Adjust sauce thickness by adding more broth for a thinner consistency.
- Pairs well with mashed potatoes, pasta, or roasted vegetables.
