Why pork steak?
Pork steaks are one of my favourite pork meat I usually use as it is fattier, and if appropriately cooked, the meat is soft and tender. However, you can try this recipe with some beef steaks or lamb meat, but I really can’t guarantee the taste as I haven’t yet tried with other kinds of meat.
I adore beef stroganoff and beef bourguignon – but they have other aromas and ingredients. These pork steak bites will take you to another level of satisfaction.
What ingredients do you need?
- Pork steak – here, you need the best quality pork meat cut in small pieces. It either may be sirloin or loin packs that are pretty tender and prepares quicker.
- Garlic – the more is better. I adore garlic in all recipes, so here I have added plenty (5 cloves of minced garlic).
- Butter – I have used ½ cup of unsalted butter.
- Herbs and some pepper flakes for spiciness
- Parsley or cilantro to garnish
How to make steak bites in garlic butter?
This recipe full of aroma and flavours couldn’t be easier. It is one of those recipes that are on the must-cook list. One tip: if you want this dish really restaurant-like and fabulous, use a hot/hot skillet to avoid an overcooked pork steak. If you are using a really hot skillet, then making this steak is fast, some 5-7 minutes, and it is done.
The process:
On a cutting board, cut pieces of pork steak and cook them in the heated skillet. Separately, in another skillet, add butter and garlic and fry for some minutes until all the aroma has incorporated. I cook garlic in a separate skillet to avoid the unpleasant burnt garlic.
The flavour is more pronounced, and the meat tastes much lingering and delicious.
So, when the meat is already cooked, pour over the garlicky butter sauce and mix together.
Serve next to anything.
What to serve with pork steak garlic butter?
- Potatoes cooked in any ways will make a great side dish to this pork recipe. Mashed, fried, or baked, any kind will be welcomed next to some pork steaks.
- Pasta, here you can also play with a different kind of pasta: either spaghetti, penne, fusilli, and others.
- Salad – maybe this is my option when I make meat at home. Meat with a salad makes the best healthy duo; here, you can mix anything you like or have.
