Steak Bites
- 1 pound steak (such as sirloin or ribeye), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- Prepare the steak: Pat the steak pieces dry with paper towels, then season them generously with salt and black pepper to enhance flavor.
- Heat the ghee: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the ghee and allow it to melt and become hot but not smoking.
- Sear the steak bites: Add the steak pieces to the hot skillet in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
- Add garlic: During the last minute of cooking, add the minced garlic to the skillet, stirring quickly to incorporate it with the steak pieces without burning it.
- Rest the steak bites: Remove the steak bites from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes to allow juices to redistribute before serving.
Notes
- For best results, use steaks that are at least 1 inch thick for tender bites.
- Adjust garlic quantity for milder or stronger flavor.
- Serve with your favorite Whole30-compliant sides like roasted vegetables or salad.
- Ensure the skillet is hot before adding steak to get a proper sear.
