Ingredients
 

  • 1 lb steak, (ribeye, strip, or sirloin), cut into 1-inch chunks
  • 2 teaspoon avocado oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt + pinch of black pepper
  • 1.5 tablespoon butter
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • Fresh herbs, chives or parsley, for garnish
  • Drizzle of hot honey

Instructions

  • Preheat your pan. Heat a large skillet (I love cast iron) over high heat. While it heats, toss the steak pieces with salt and pepper.
  • Sear the steak. Add avocado oil to the hot pan and swirl to coat. Add the steak bites in a single layer. Let them sear undisturbed so you get a nice crust.
  • Flip + finish cooking. Flip after about 2–3 minutes. They cook fast! Pull at 130–135°F for medium-rare — use an instant-read thermometer for best results.
  • Remove and make the garlic butter. Transfer steak bites to a plate. Take the pan off the heat, then add butter and garlic. Toss quickly so the garlic doesn’t burn.
  • Let the garlic cook gently. If needed, place the pan back on low heat just until the butter melts and garlic is lightly golden (about 30–60 seconds).
  • Toss everything together. Add the steak (and juices) back into the pan with fresh herbs. Toss until everything is coated in that garlic butter.
  • Serve immediately. Best served hot — juicy, buttery, and so good. Drizzle with hot honey and some fresh herbs for the best taste!
