Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 lbs sirloin steak cut into 1 inch cubes
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp avocado oil
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 6 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley chopped

Method
 

  1. Pat the steak cubes completely dry with paper towels.
  2. Toss with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic powder. Let rest 10 minutes.
  3. Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat for 3 minutes until smoking. Add avocado oil.
  4. Add steak in a single layer. Sear 90 seconds on the first side without moving, flip and sear 60 seconds more.
  5. Reduce heat to medium. Add butter, garlic, Worcestershire, and thyme. Spoon foaming butter over the steak for 45 seconds.
  6. Transfer to a warm bowl with the pan butter and let rest 3 minutes.
  7. Scatter parsley and red pepper flakes on top, finish with flaky salt, and serve.

Notes

Pat the steak completely dry for a great sear. Use cast iron for best results. Add butter only after the sear.
