Ingredients:
For the Steak Bites:
• 1 lb (450g) sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
• Salt and black pepper, to taste
• 2 tbsp (28g) butter
• 5 cloves garlic, minced
For the Parmesan Cream Sauce:
• ½ cup (120ml) beef broth
• 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream
• ½ cup (50g) grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Steak Bites:
1. Season the steak pieces generously with salt and black pepper.
2. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add the steak bites in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the steak bites and set aside.
2. Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:
1. In the same skillet, add the minced garlic to the remaining butter and sauté for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
2. Pour in the beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.
3. Create the Parmesan Cream Sauce:
1. Reduce the heat to medium-low. Slowly stir in the heavy cream and Parmesan cheese, whisking until the sauce thickens (about 2-3 minutes). Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
4. Combine and Serve:
1. Return the steak bites to the skillet, tossing them in the creamy garlic sauce.
2. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
