One-Pan Garlic Butter Steak Bites with Roasted Broccoli

Ingredients

• •1.5 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
• •2 medium heads of broccoli, cut into small florets
• •4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• •2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• •4 cloves garlic, minced
• •1 teaspoon kosher salt
• •1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
• •1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
• •1/2 fresh lemon, juiced
• •1 tablespoon fresh Italian parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

1. 1Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. 2On a large rimmed baking sheet, toss the broccoli florets with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. Roast for 12-15 minutes until tender-crisp and slightly charred on the edges.
3. 3While broccoli is roasting, pat the steak bites thoroughly dry with paper towels. Season with the remaining salt and pepper.
4. 4Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.
5. 5Add the steak bites to the skillet in a single layer, ensuring they do not touch. Sear undisturbed for 2 minutes to develop a deep brown crust, then flip and sear for another 2 minutes.
6. 6Reduce the heat to medium and add the butter, minced garlic, and red pepper flakes to the pan.
7. 7As the butter melts and foams, use a spoon to continuously baste the steak bites with the garlic butter for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
8. 8Add the roasted broccoli florets into the skillet and toss gently to coat every piece in the garlic butter and savory pan juices.
9. 9Remove the skillet from the heat. Squeeze the fresh lemon juice over the steak and broccoli.
10. 10Garnish with chopped parsley and serve immediately directly from the pan for a rustic presentation.
