Provided by Joanna Cismaru

Categories     Main Course

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ½ pound sirloin steak (cut into bite size pieces, or strip loin, tenderloin, strip steak or rib eye)
½ teaspoon salt (or to taste)
½ teaspoon pepper (or to taste)
2 tablespoon butter (unsalted)
4 cloves garlic (minced)
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon parsley (fresh, chopped)

Steps:

  • Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat it over high heat. Make sure the olive oil is hot, then add the steak pieces to it. Season them generously with salt and pepper.
  • Cook for at least 2 minutes before stirring the steak pieces. You want to make sure you get a good sear on them. Continue cooking for another 2 minutes until they're golden brown. If your skillet isn't big enough, you may need to do this batches.
  • Transfer the steak bites to a plate and in the same skillet add the butter. Turn the heat down to a medium and after the butter has melted, add the garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook for about 30 seconds while stirring, just until the garlic becomes aromatic and starts to brown.
  • Pour the garlic butter over the steak bites and toss well. Garnish with parsley and serve.

STEAK BITES

Provided by Ree Drummond : Food Network

Time 25m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 pound sirloin steak (without much gristle) or pre-cut beef tips
Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper
Kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper
Butter

Steps:

  • Trim off the excess fat from the meat, and then cut strips less than 1-inch wide. Rotate the meat and cut into small bite-size pieces. If you see any more large chunks of fat, gristle or long silvery membrane, cut them off.
  • Sprinkle generously with kosher salt and freshly ground pepper. Toss the meat around a bit to thoroughly coat with the seasonings.
  • Next, turn on your ventilation fan-you'll need it! Heat the skillet over medium-high to high heat. As the pan heats, add about 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet. Allow the butter to melt, and then get very brown, before you add the meat.
  • 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 30 to 45 seconds. You want it to sizzle and brown on one side. 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 30 to 45 seconds-just long enough to sear the outside of the meat but NOT cook the inside.
  • Remove the meat to a clean plate. Add a little more butter 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 all that browned/blackened butter all over the meat. And enjoy!

Tips:

  • Tenderize the Beef: For extra-tender beef bites, consider using a meat mallet to tenderize the flank steak before cutting it into strips.
  • Marinate the Beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful mixture of soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil not only tenderizes the meat but also infuses it with delicious Asian flavors.
  • Slice Against the Grain: When cutting the flank steak into strips, be sure to slice against the grain to ensure tender and flavorful bites.
  • Sear the Beef: Searing the beef in a hot skillet or grill creates a delicious crust while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
  • Stir-Fry the Vegetables: Stir-frying the vegetables over high heat ensures that they retain their vibrant colors, textures, and nutrients.
  • Use a Thicken Sauce: Adding a cornstarch-based sauce at the end of cooking helps to thicken the sauce and create a delicious glaze for the beef and vegetables.
  • Serve Immediately: Bistro Beef Bites are best served immediately after cooking, while the beef is still tender and juicy and the vegetables are still crisp and colorful.

Conclusion:

Bistro Beef Bites are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as an appetizer, main course, or even a party snack. The tender beef, flavorful Asian-inspired marinade, and crisp vegetables combined with a luscious sauce create a tantalizing taste experience that is sure to impress. Whether you're a seasoned cook or a beginner in the kitchen, this recipe is easy to follow and guarantees a delectable meal that will satisfy your cravings for a flavorful and satisfying dish.
