These garlic butter steak bites make for an easy appetizer or a light supper for four. Cooking the steak in small pieces makes it easier to maneuver in the pan and ensures lots of crispy brown edges and seared beefy flavor in the finished dish. Making garlic parsley butter in the same pan ensures that each bite is soused with seasonings, rich and delicious.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Ingredients for Garlic Butter Steak Bites<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul class=\"recipe-ingredients__list recipe-ingredients__collection splitColumns\">\n<li><strong>Spice Rub:<\/strong> A mixture of salt, garlic powder, pepper and optional crushed red pepper flakes seasons the steak before searing, establishing a baseline of savory flavor in the meat. You can substitute a jarred steak seasoning blend or barbecue rub.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Steak:<\/strong> You can use 1 pound of any steak you like for this recipe based on your preference. We recommend top sirloin because it&#8217;s relatively lean and inexpensive with big, beefy flavor.

You can substitute canola or vegetable oil instead.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Butter, garlic and parsley:<\/strong> A quick garlic-parsley butter made in the same pan adds irresistible savory flavor to the seared cubes of steak.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><strong>Directions\u202f<\/strong><\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Season steak bites<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2029610\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/Garlic-Butter-Steak-Bites-TOHD24_277239_AbbeyLittlejohn_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"Bowl of cubed steak being mixed with seasonings for step one of Garlic Butter Steak Bite recipe for Taste Recipes\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">ABBEY LITTLEJOHN\/TASTE OF HOME<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a large bowl, combine the salt, garlic powder, pepper and, if desired, red pepper flakes.

If you tend to test how it\u2019s progressing by cutting into it or poking it with a fork, you\u2019re releasing some of those flavors and juices that make the meat delicious.<i> <\/i>When wielding a trusty thermometer, aim for internal temperatures of 135\u00b0F, 140\u00b0 and 145\u00b0 for medium-rare, medium and medium-well steaks, respectively.

Ribeye or New York strip steaks are popular because their high-fat content keeps the meat rich and juicy. However, we like tender filet mignon steaks (cut from the beef tenderloin), top sirloin or flat iron steak for this garlic butter steak recipe. The garlic butter adds fat so even leaner cuts read as juicy and succulent.<\/p>\n<h3>How do you season the perfect steak?<\/h3>\n<p>When it comes to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-season-meat\/\" data-name=\"www.tasteofhome.com\/article\/how-to-season-meat\/\" data-module=\"content engagement\" data-position=\"embedded links\">seasoning meat<\/a> like steak, you can&#8217;t go wrong with salt and pepper and a little garlic and chile flakes. Salt pulls out moisture through a process called osmosis, tenderizing the muscle fibers and enhancing the meat\u2019s flavor. Just make sure to let the meat stand for at least 45 minutes (or as long as overnight in the fridge) so it has time to absorb the seasoning.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Steak bites basted in garlic butter with parsley are an appetizer answer to a full steakhouse supper.
