Ingredients
– 1/2 tablespoon avocado oil
– 2 pounds steak cut into small, roughly one-inch bite-sized pieces
– 2 teaspoons salt
– 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
– 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
– 2 tablespoons butter or ghee
– 6 cloves minced garlic
– 1/4 cup chopped parsley
– Green onion for garnish
Instructions
1-First, season the steak bites with 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes if you want a bit of heat. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1/2 tablespoon avocado oil. Place the steak in a single layer and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until browned, stirring occasionally, and cook in batches if needed.
2-Once browned, remove the steak from the pan and drain any excess water from the skillet. Add 2 tablespoons butter or ghee, then sauté 6 cloves minced garlic for 1 minute until fragrant. Return the steak to the pan and cook for 1 to 2 minutes while stirring to coat everything in that delicious garlic butter. Finally, remove from heat, stir in 1/4 cup chopped parsley, garnish with green onion, and serve immediately for the freshest taste.
3-For added variety, consider sautéing quick-cooking vegetables like zucchini, bell peppers, or sliced onions before adding the butter they mix back in perfectly with the steak. If you’re swapping in chicken thighs, adjust the cooking time to keep them tender.
