🥩 Garlic Butter Steak Bites with Parmesan Cream Sauce


  • Author: WAFA LI

Ingredients

• 1 lb (450g) sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
• Salt & black pepper to taste
• 2 tbsp olive oil (divided)
• 3 tbsp butter or ghee
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• ½ cup dry white wine (optional, or sub with beef broth)
• ½ cup heavy cream or full-fat coconut milk
• ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard (optional, for depth)
• ½ tsp Italian seasoning
• Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
• Optional: toothpicks for serving


Instructions

  1. Season steak bites generously with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, warm 1 tbsp olive oil. Sear steak in batches until browned on all sides (2–3 minutes per batch). Remove and set aside.
  3. Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining 1 tbsp olive oil and butter. Sauté garlic 30 seconds until fragrant (don’t burn!).
  4. Pour in white wine (if using) and simmer 1–2 minutes to deglaze the pan and reduce slightly.
  5. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan, Dijon (if using), and Italian seasoning. Simmer 2–3 minutes until sauce thickens and cheese melts.
  6. Return steak bites to the pan. Toss gently to coat and heat through (1–2 minutes).
  7. Taste and adjust seasoning—add more pepper, salt, or a splash of lemon juice for brightness.
  8. Serve hot, garnished with fresh parsley. Great over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles!

✨ Perfect for:
• Date night dinners
• Fancy weeknight meals
• Appetizer platters (serve with toothpicks)

💡 Make ahead: Reheat gently on the stove with a splash of cream to restore richness.
