Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 pounds of high-quality beef sirloin or tenderloin, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter or ghee
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional for smoky flavor)
- Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
- Red chili flakes (optional for a spicy kick)
Instructions
- Start by selecting good-quality beef and cutting it into evenly sized bite-sized pieces to ensure quick and even cooking.
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the beef bites and sear until browned on all sides, approximately 3-4 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and minced garlic. Cook until fragrant, about 1 minute, being careful not to burn the garlic.
- Return the beef bites to the skillet. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and red chili flakes if using. Toss everything together, allowing the beef to soak up the savory garlic butter, and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately. For an even more flavorful experience, pair with steamed vegetables, salads, or cauliflower rice.
Notes
- Ensure beef bites are cut uniformly for even cooking.
- Use fresh garlic for the best flavor.
- Adjust spice levels with red chili flakes according to your heat preference.
- For healthier options, substitute butter with olive or avocado oil.
