Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons Cajun seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, toss the steak cubes with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper until evenly coated.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned steak cubes in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes without stirring to get a nice sear.
- Flip the steak bites and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes for medium-rare, or longer if desired.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for another minute, allowing the garlic to become fragrant but not burnt.
- Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
Notes
- For a spicy kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the Cajun seasoning.
- Serve with a side of sautéed vegetables or over a bed of rice to make it a complete meal.
