Equipment:

• Large cast-iron skillet

• Chef’s knife

• Cutting board

• Tongs

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes

• 1 tablespoon olive oil

• 1 teaspoon kosher salt

• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

• 4 cloves garlic, minced

• 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions:

1. Prepare the steak: Pat the steak cubes dry with paper towels. Season them evenly with kosher salt and black pepper.

2. Heat the skillet: Place a large cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot. Add the olive oil and swirl it around to coat the bottom.

3. Sear the steak: Arrange the steak cubes in a single layer without overcrowding the pan. Sear for 1–2 minutes until a deep brown crust forms, then flip and cook the other side.

4. Set aside: Transfer the steak bites to a plate and let them rest briefly while you prepare the garlic butter.

5. Melt the butter: Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter to the skillet. Allow it to melt completely.

6. Add the garlic: Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 30–60 seconds, stirring constantly until fragrant. Avoid browning or burning the garlic.

7. Coat the steak: Return the steak bites and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Toss everything in the garlic butter until well coated.

8. Garnish and serve: Remove the skillet from the heat, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley, and serve immediately while hot.
