Preparation
  1. Cut the steak into bite-sized pieces to ensure even cooking.
  2. Season the steak generously with salt and pepper.
Cooking
  1. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
  2. Cook the steak in batches to avoid overcrowding, searing each piece for about 2-3 minutes until browned.
  3. Once all steak pieces are cooked, reduce the heat and add the butter and minced garlic.
  4. Allow the garlic to soften and become fragrant.
  5. Return the steak bites to the pan, tossing to coat in the garlic butter.

Notes

Aim for medium-rare steak for best flavor. Allow the steak to rest for a few minutes after cooking. Be careful not to overcook the garlic as it can become bitter.
