For the Steak Bites:
- 1 1/2 lbs (680g) sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
For the Parmesan Cream Sauce:

- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
- Prepare the Steak Bites: Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak bites in a single layer and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside. Reduce heat to medium, then add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, stir in the garlic and thyme. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant. Return the steak to the skillet and toss to coat. Remove from heat.
- Make the Parmesan Cream Sauce: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in the heavy cream, allowing the mixture to thicken, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in Parmesan cheese and garlic powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook until smooth, then remove from heat.
- Serve: Plate the steak bites and drizzle the Parmesan cream sauce over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
