Instructions

Prep the steak: Pat the steak bites dry with paper towels. Season with Cajun seasoning, salt, and pepper.
Sear the steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add steak bites in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Make garlic butter: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium. Add butter and minced garlic, cooking until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
Coat steak bites: Return steak bites to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter until well coated.
Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve immediately.

Notes

Use a meat thermometer for perfect doneness: 130°F (medium-rare), 140°F (medium).
Adjust the spice level by adding more or less Cajun seasoning.
Can be made with ribeye, tenderloin, or New York strip for extra tenderness.
