Description

Tender steak seasoned with garlic, butter, and fresh herbs will be your new favorite weeknight dinner! This simple recipe only takes twenty minutes to make and can easily be made Paleo compliant, Whole30 friendly, and dairy-free!


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ tablespoon avocado oil
  • 2 pounds of steak, cut into small bite size pieces
  • 2 teaspoons salt 
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 tablespoons butter or ghee
  • 6 cloves minced garlic 
  • ¼ cup chopped parsley 
  • green onion, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Season the steak bites with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes and stir until well coated.
  2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the avocado oil to the hot skillet and then add the steak in a single layer. Cook the steak bites for 3-4 minutes until brown, stirring occasionally. You may have to do this in batches depending on the size of your skillet. Once the steak is brown, remove it from the pan.
  3. Remove any excess water from the skillet and then add the butter or ghee to the pan. Next add the garlic and saute for 1 minute.
  4. Add the steak back to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes stirring to coat it in the butter sauce. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Garnish with green onion and serve immediately.
