Ingredients
  

Steak Ingredients
  • 1 pound high-quality steak (sirloin or ribeye)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • to taste salt and pepper
Sauce Ingredients
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • to taste fresh parsley, chopped For garnish

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Start by cutting your steak into bite-sized pieces. No need for perfect uniformity; they can be rustic.
  2. Season your steak bites generously with salt and pepper.
Cooking the Steak
  1. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter.
  2. Add your steak bites in batches, cooking for about 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, flipping halfway through.
  3. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
Making the Sauce
  1. In the same skillet, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and minced garlic. Sauté for about a minute until fragrant.
  2. Pour in the heavy cream and stir. Bring to a soft simmer, then add the Parmesan cheese, stirring until melted and creamy.
  3. Return the steak bites to the skillet and coat in the sauce. Let them soak up the flavors for about a minute.
  4. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.

Notes

Consider adding extra butter for a richer flavor. Using high-quality steak will enhance the dish, and you can adjust the thickness of the sauce by adding more cream if desired. This dish is perfect for impressing guests!
