Ingredients:
1 kg (2.2 lb) sirloin steak (cut into 1 to 1.5 cm cubes)
3 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp onion powder
2 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp black pepper
2 tsp minced garlic
2 tbsp olive oil
40 gm butter (two 20 gm pieces)
1/2 cup beef broth
Some parsley for garnish
Instructions:
Marinate the Beef
Prepare the Marinade: In a large mixing bowl, combine the Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to ensure all the spices are evenly distributed.
Marinate the Beef: Add the beef cubes to the bowl and toss to coat each piece thoroughly with the marinade. Let the beef marinate for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors. For best results, you can marinate the beef for up to 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Cook the Beef
Heat the Skillet: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Ensure the skillet is hot before adding the beef to get a nice sear.
Sear the Beef: Add the marinated beef cubes to the skillet in a single layer, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook the beef cubes for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and caramelized. This step is crucial for developing the rich, savory crust on the beef.
Add the Garlic: Once the beef cubes are browned, add the minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for an additional minute, stirring constantly, until the garlic becomes fragrant and slightly golden. Be careful not to burn the garlic as it can turn bitter.
Finish the Dish
Add the Butter: Add the butter to the skillet, allowing it to melt and coat the beef cubes. The butter will enhance the richness of the dish and add a smooth, creamy texture to the sauce.
Deglaze with Beef Broth: Pour in the beef broth, scraping the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan and release any flavorful bits stuck to the bottom. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Thicken the Sauce: Let the beef and sauce simmer for another 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly. Stir occasionally to ensure the beef is well-coated with the sauce and to prevent sticking.
