Start by cutting 1 ¼ pounds sirloin steak into 1-inch cubes. This helps the meat cook evenly and ensures each bite is tender.
Add 1 tablespoon olive oil to a medium-sized skillet over medium-high heat. Wait until the oil shimmers before adding the steak.
Season the steak with ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. This will enhance its natural flavors.
Add the cubes of steak to the hot pan, allowing them to cook undisturbed for a few minutes until they are golden brown on one side.
Once browned, carefully flip the steak to brown the other side. Look for a nice sear, which adds flavor.
Remove the steak from the pan and set it aside on a plate, ensuring you don’t overcrowd the pan.
Add 8 ounces mushrooms and 3 cloves garlic to the same pan. You’ll want to sauté them until the mushrooms are tender and the garlic is fragrant, about three minutes.
Pour in 1 cup heavy cream and add ½ cup shredded parmesan cheese. Stir well to combine, letting it simmer for a few minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Return the steak to the pan, mixing it in with the sauce. Allow it to heat through, ensuring it’s coated in the creamy mixture.
Finally, serve the Creamy Garlic Steak Bites over your favorite grain or pasta, garnished with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color.
