Category: Dinner Party, Main Dish, Beef

 Ingredients List

  • 1 sirloin steak or 1 pkg. pre-cut beef tips
  • Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • Butter

 Directions

1. Trim off the large obvious pieces of fat that run along the side of the meat

2. Cut strips less than 1 inch wide

3. Rotate the meat and cut into small bite-sized pieces

4. If you see anymore large chunks of fat, gristle or long silvery membranes cut them off

5. Sprinkle generously with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

6. Toss the meat around a bit to thoroughly coat with the seasonings

7. Turn on your ventilation fan overhead

8. Heat the skillet over medium high to high heat

9. As the pan heats, add about 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet

10. The point here is to allow the butter to melt, then brown, before you add the meat

11. Place some of the meat in the pan in a single layer

12. It should sizzle loudly when it hits the pan - if it doesn't, the pan isn't hot enough

13. Don't stir or disrupt the meat for 30 to 45 seconds

14. You want it to sizzle and brown on one side

15. Now scoop as many steak bites as you can with your spatula and flip them over

16. Repeat until all the meat is turned

17. Cook for an additional 30 seconds or so - just long enough to sear the outside of the meat but NOT cook the inside

18. (LA Note: I like my meat medium to medium-well so I cooked mine longer.)

19. Remove the meat to a clean plate

20. Add a little more butter to the pan and repeat the cooking process with the next batch just as before

21. Lastly when all the meat is nicely browned and removed to the plate pour all that browned/blackened butter all over the meat
