Ingredients
Scale
Steak Bites
- 1 pound sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Sauce & Seasoning
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Season the steak bites: In a bowl, season the sirloin steak pieces evenly with salt and black pepper, ensuring all sides are coated for balanced flavor.
- Sear the steak bites: Heat 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a skillet over medium heat until melted. Add the steak bites in batches if necessary, searing them until they develop a brown crust, about 2-3 minutes per side. This locks in the juices and enhances flavor.
- Transfer to crockpot: Carefully move the seared steak bites from the skillet into the crockpot, spreading them out evenly.
- Add garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and butter: Add the minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter directly to the crockpot, mixing gently to coat the steak bites thoroughly.
- Slow cook: Cover the crockpot and cook the steak bites on low heat for 4 hours. This slow cooking process makes the steak incredibly tender and infuses the flavors deeply.
- Garnish and serve: Once cooked, sprinkle freshly chopped parsley over the steak bites before serving to add a burst of color and fresh herbal aroma.
Notes
- For best results, use sirloin steak for tenderness and flavor.
- Searing the steak before slow cooking helps retain moisture and adds a delightful crust.
- You can adjust the cooking time slightly depending on your crockpot model and desired doneness.
- Serve over rice, mashed potatoes, or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
- Leftover steak bites can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
