- 1.5 lbs 680g sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 3 tbsp soy sauce or gluten-free alternative
- 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp honey
- 3 tbsp butter optional, for garlic butter sauce
- 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped (for garnish)
Marinate: In a bowl, combine steak cubes with olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic powder, smoked paprika, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, and honey. Let marinate for 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours).
Cook: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak bites in a single layer and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked to desired doneness.
Optional Sauce: In the same skillet, melt butter, add minced garlic, and cook for 1-2 minutes. Drizzle over steak bites.
Serve: Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Pro Tips:
Use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness (130°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium).
For an air fryer option, cook at 400°F for 6-8 minutes, shaking halfway through.
Pair with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a fresh salad.
