Equipment

  • skillet

Ingredients

For the Steak Bites

  • 1 pound Sirloin Steak For a more tender option, consider using filet mignon.
  • 1 teaspoon Salt Adjust to taste based on your dietary needs.
  • 1 teaspoon Black Pepper Freshly cracked enhances the aroma and flavor.

For the Garlic Butter Sauce

  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter For added flavor, opt for salted butter but reduce additional salt.
  • 4 cloves Garlic Minced, or substitute with about 1 teaspoon of garlic powder.

For the Broccoli

  • 2 cups Broccoli Cut into bite-sized florets for even cooking.
  • 1 tablespoon Olive Oil Helps to prevent sticking; avocado oil makes a great substitute.

Optional Add-Ins

  • 1 cup Bell Peppers or Onions Mix in for extra flavor and color.
  • 1 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes For a spicy kick at the end.

Instructions

Steps

  • Pat your sirloin steak cubes dry with paper towels, and season them generously with salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
  • Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the steak and set aside.
  • In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add unsalted butter. Once melted, toss in the minced garlic, sautéing for about 1 minute until it's fragrant.
  • Stir in your broccoli florets, coating them with garlic butter. Add in 2 tablespoons of water, then cover the skillet and let it steam for 3-4 minutes until the broccoli is tender-crisp.
  • Return the seared steak to the skillet, combining everything together. Heat through for an additional 1-2 minutes until everything is well mixed and hot.

Notes

For perfectly tender-crisp broccoli, be mindful not to over-steam. Adjust water and steaming time based on your texture preference.
