For the Garlic Butter Steak Bites

Season the Steak

Pat the steak pieces dry using paper towels.

Season generously with salt and black pepper, ensuring each piece is coated.

Sear the Steak

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

When hot, add the steak bites in a single layer.

Sear for 3–4 minutes, turning occasionally until browned on all sides.

Remove the steak from the pan and set aside.

Make Garlic Butter Sauce

In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium.

Add 4 tablespoons butter and allow it to melt.

Stir in 4 cloves of minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary.

Cook for about 1 minute, until the garlic becomes fragrant.

Return Steak to Pan

Add the seared steak bites back into the skillet.

Stir well to coat all pieces in the garlic herb butter.

Cook for another 2–3 minutes, or until the steak reaches desired doneness.

Remove from heat and keep warm.
