Adding the garlic after the steak has seared prevents it from burning. See more on adding garlic below.

How To Make These Steak Nibbles
Use your favorite spice blends, the ones you know will add a little bit of everything to enhance the flavor. In this recipe we used natural spices from our Smell and Taste
Garlic - minced garlic for loads of flavor! You can use less or leave it out if you don't like garlic or for health reasons can't eat garlic. I've made these steak nibbles so many times both with and without garlic and they taste amazing regardless!
Does the garlic add flavor? Absolutely - but so does the oil and butter. As long as you have a good spice blend and your steak is well seasoned it will be addictively good!
Butter & Olive oil - It just works in terms of the most flavorful steak nibbles!
Spice and Seasoning - It's compulsory because it can seriously take your food from bland to 'oh so delicious!'
Fresh parsley - It's a special love affair with flat Italian parsley Bright, green and even naturally dried, it just works!
Tips & Suggestions
If you've been following along you know that the tips & suggestions is my favorite part of writing recipes because its where I have an opportunity to share real life tips from my kitchen to yours!
Let's do it....
- Try not to make the cubes too big or too small, they should be bite sized.
- Room temperature meat
- Season generously
- Coat the cubes well in spices and seasoning before frying
- Use a hot skillet!
- Don't touch them for the first 1 to 2 minutes when they're in the pan
- Add small blobs of unsalted butter into the pan while searing on the first side but don't touch them
- Once you turn them over, take a spoon and scoop the fat and baste the seared side.
What's left to do?
Sprinkle fresh greens and serve with a toothpick! And maybe a good dollop of sour cream? Enjoy!
Serving Suggestions
You know what I think is the best way to eat these steak nibbles? Toothpicks! If you get a couple toothpicks into the steaks for serving, you will soon end up with an empty plate.
