Why You’ll Love This Recipe
If you love steak, but want a quick and easy way to prepare it indoors, these steak bites are for you! I have made these twice in the last few weeks because they are so easy and delicious. If you are eating Paleo or Whole30 these are a great recipe choice!
They are great when you have lighter eaters at your dinner table. No need to deal with a large piece of meat. Just take as many bites as you like. No waste!
Ingredients Needed
You only need a few ingredients to make these delicious steak bites.
- Sirloin Steak
- Butter
- Kosher Salt and Freshly Ground Black Pepper
How to Make Steak Bites
- Cut steak into large bite size pieces.
- Heat up a cast iron pan nice and hot. If you don’t have a cast iron pan use a heavy skillet.
- Add butter and let it melt.
- Cook steak to your desired doneness. I like my meat medium to medium rare. And the small pieces make the cooking time quick! So make sure to watch your meat.

Steak Bites Recipe
Juicy and flavorful steak cooked indoors in half of the time with this steak bite recipe.
Prep:10 minutes
Cook:10 minutes
Total:20 minutes
Ingredients
- 1/2 Tbsp Olive oil
- 1 lb sirloin steak cubed
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 3 Tbsp butter
- 2 cloves garlic minced
Instructions
- Trim off the large obvious pieces of fat that run along the side of the meat
- Cut cubes less than 1 inch wide
- If you see anymore large chunks of fat, gristle or long silvery membranes cut them off
- Sprinkle generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Toss the meat around a bit to thoroughly coat with the seasonings
- Turn on your ventilation fan overhead
- Heat the skillet over medium high to high heat
- As the pan heats, add olive oil
- Place some of the meat in the pan in a single layer
- It should sizzle loudly when it hits the pan – if it doesn’t, the pan isn’t hot enough
- Don't stir or disrupt the meat for 2-3 minutes
- You want it to sizzle and brown on one side
- Now scoop as many steak bites as you can with your spatula and flip them over
- Repeat until all the meat is turned
- Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes – just long enough to sear the outside of the meat but NOT cook the inside
- Rare: 120 degrees (4 minutes)Medium-Rare: 125 degrees (5 minutes)Medium: 130 degrees (6 minutes)
- Remove the meat to a clean plate
- Add a little more oil to the pan and repeat the cooking process with the next batch just as before
- Lastly when all the meat is nicely browned and removed to the plate pour garlic butter over the top
Garlic Butter
- Heat butter in a skillet. Add the garlic and cook for only 30-60 seconds, stirring to prevent garlic browning.

It was a great recipe. I have to make it again so that I can put my spin for my family on it with seasonings and such. Thanks for the suggestions and help.
