Savory Garlic Butter Steak Bites

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large heavy-duty skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat for at least 1 minute.

In a mixing bowl, season the 1-inch sirloin steak cubes with 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to coat them evenly.

Cook the steak bites in the skillet in a single layer, without overcrowding the pan, working in batches if necessary.

When the steak bites are seared and dark brown, cook for an additional 2 minutes per side, then remove them from the pan and set aside.

Reduce the heat to medium-low and add 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, 4 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon chopped rosemary, and 1 teaspoon chopped thyme to the pan. Stir for 30 seconds or until the garlic turns light brown and the herbs release their aroma.

Turn off the heat and return the steak bites to the pan. Stir until the steak bites are fully coated with the garlic butter herb mixture.

Serve the steak bites immediately with your preferred sides, such as warm mashed sweet potatoes, grilled vegetables, steamed veggies, rice, or a fresh salad.
