Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Steak Bites

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
Season the steak bites with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
Sear the steak bites in batches, cooking for about 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove and set aside.

Step 2: Make the Garlic Butter

In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add butter.
Once melted, stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Toss the cooked steak bites back into the skillet and coat them with the garlic butter. Remove from heat and keep warm.

Step 3: Prepare the Parmesan Cream Sauce

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute, forming a roux.
Slowly pour in the milk, whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
Simmer for 2-3 minutes until thickened, then stir in Parmesan cheese and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 4: Serve and Garnish

Plate the garlic butter steak bites and drizzle with the Parmesan cream sauce.
Garnish with fresh parsley or chives and serve warm.

Notes

Choose Quality Meat: Opt for tender cuts like sirloin or beef tenderloin for the best results.
Don’t Overcrowd the Pan: Sear the steak bites in batches to ensure a perfect crust.
Make it Spicy: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the garlic butter for a hint of heat.
