Ingredients (Serves 4)
- 1½ pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
Optional Garlic Mashed Potatoes
- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 4 tablespoons butter
- ½ cup warm milk
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Pat the steak cubes dry with paper towels and season with salt, pepper, onion powder, paprika, and Italian seasoning.
- Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until very hot.
- Add the steak cubes in a single layer without overcrowding the pan. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side until nicely browned. Cook in batches if necessary.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the Worcestershire sauce and toss the steak bites in the garlic butter until evenly coated.
- Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Garlic Mashed Potatoes
- Boil the potatoes in salted water for 15–20 minutes until fork-tender.
- Drain well and return to the pot.
- Add butter, warm milk, garlic, salt, and pepper.
- Mash until smooth and creamy.
Tips
- Sirloin, ribeye, or New York strip all work well.
- Avoid overcrowding the skillet to get a perfect sear.
- For medium-rare, cook the steak just until the internal temperature reaches 130–135°F (54–57°C).
- Garnish with extra parsley or grated Parmesan for even more flavor.
