    Do you love steak? If so, these steak bites are just what you need. Even my kids now request these! Whether you serve them as an appetizer with toothpicks, or serve them as a main dish…you’ll quickly see just how fast these disappear!

    You can use several different cuts of meat depending on what you prefer. Anything from sirloin steak, tenderloin, rib-eye, or even New York strip steak. Check your grocery store to see what’s on sale and go from there!

    These Garlic Butter Steak Bites call for minimal ingredients, most of which you probably already have on hand! Of course, you can kick the bites up a few notches if desired and sprinkle some Chupacabra seasoning or Slap Ya Mama seasoning on top.

    Since the steak is diced, it only takes a few minutes to cook. We like to cook ours in our cast iron skillet and get a nice “crust” on ours, but if you don’t have cast iron, a regular skillet works as well!

    With only 6 ingredients you can have the most tender and juicy steak bites that will leave so many begging for the recipe!

    We enjoyed ours with some roasted potatoes and green beans, also cooked in cast iron on the grill. Not only was it a quick and simple meal, but being summer, it kept the heat outside and free from my kitchen! Living in Houston, thats always a good thing since summer heat tends to be 90+ degrees and hot/humid!

      I love the buttery flavor and kick of garlic with the beef. These were perfect with the egg noodles I made.
