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
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.

I’ve tried her French breakfast puffs (which you’ve also tied!) and they are always a big hit. I really enjoy your blog:)

I have made Pioneer Woman’s Pasta Primavera http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2007/08/pioneer_womans_/ – I love it.
If I had children or dinner parties I would make more of her recipes. That’s what I keep telling myself. Every time I go home to visit with my family I end up making something from the PW site because there are enough people to eat it all.
I have to say though – the banana bread from your site is still our very favorite.

Hi! I found your blog not too long ago and I love it!
I’ve been drooling over all your recipes!
Your site is right up there with Pioneer Woman in my books 🙂
I’ve been making Pioneer Woman recipes for awhile now and I think my husband falls more in love with me each time I make them! Especially the Marlboro Man sandwich. He goes to the office bragging about it every time 🙂
I haven’t tried the steak bites yet, but will have give them a shot!
Thanks for all your yummy pictures! I can’t wait to try out your recipes too!
I’ve added you to my blog, hope that’ ok 🙂

That looks awesome. I will have to save a little in the food budget to try that one… for me, I’m thinking the Pasta and Eggplant looks awesome… I wonder if I used italian seasoning on the steak if I could get away with the pasta and eggplant as the side dish…

Thanks for all your Pioneer Woman suggestions! Thinking that chocolate pie might have to be my next PW recipe!!!
Would love to hear from more of you!
