Ingredients:
1 lb (450g) sirloin steak or your favorite steak cut, cut into bite-sized cubes
2 tbsp olive oil
4 tbsp unsalted butter
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp fresh thyme or 1/2 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp fresh rosemary, chopped (optional)
Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
1 tbsp lemon juice (optional, for a little zest)
Instructions:
Prepare the Steak:
Cut your steak into bite-sized cubes, about 1 to 1.5 inches in size.
Pat the steak cubes dry with a paper towel (this helps them sear better) and season generously with salt and pepper on all sides.
Cook the Steak:
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak cubes in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan).
Cook the steak cubes for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness (medium-rare to medium is recommended for tenderness).
