Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 Tbsp smoked paprika
  • 1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (or adjust to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp packed light brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 1/2 lbs steak (strip steak, sirloin, ribeye, etc.)
  • 2 Tbsp vegetable oil (divided)
  • 3 Tbsp unsalted butter
  • 5 cloves garlic (minced)
  • Fresh parsley (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Slice the steak into approximately 2-inch pieces and place them in a mixing bowl.
  2. Combine all seasoning ingredients in a small bowl; add to the steak and toss to coat evenly.
  3. Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat until smoking.
  4. Add 1 Tbsp vegetable oil to the skillet. Sear half the steak bites for about 2 minutes on each side until browned; remove and set aside. Repeat with remaining oil and steak.
  5. Lower the heat to medium-low, add butter to the skillet, and once melted, stir in minced garlic for about 30 seconds, scraping any browned bits from the pan.
  6. Return the steak bites to the skillet, stirring to coat well in garlic butter. Serve hot with chopped parsley on top.
