Ingredients

Scale

Let’s keep it simple and real, just like my mom always did. Here’s what you’ll need:

1 pound of sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon dried thyme (or fresh if you have it)

And if you’re missing something, don’t fret! Swap the sirloin for whatever cut you have on hand, or use balsamic vinegar if you’re out of Worcestershire sauce. This is about making do with what you’ve got, just like those times my mom could whip up a feast with a can of tomatoes and a sprinkle of spices.

Instructions

Ready to cook up some magic? Follow these easy steps:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. It should be hot enough to sizzle when you add the steak.
Add the steak bites in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, letting one side sear until it forms a golden crust.
Flip the steak bites and add in the minced garlic. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the steak is browned on all sides.
Lower the heat to medium, and add butter, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and thyme. Stir everything together to coat the steak bites in the sauce.
Let it simmer for a minute until the sauce is slightly thickened and the steak is cooked to your liking.

Remember, it’s not about perfect timing; it’s about that moment when the aroma fills the kitchen, and you know your family is going to love it.
