Instructions

Season the steak bites with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes and stir until well coated.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the avocado oil to the hot skillet and then add the steak in a single layer. Cook the steak bites for 3-4 minutes until brown, stirring occasionally. You may have to do this in batches depending on the size of your skillet. Once the steak is brown, remove it from the pan.
Remove any excess water from the skillet and then add the butter or ghee to the pan. Next add the garlic and saute for 1 minute.
Add the steak back to the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes stirring to coat it in the butter sauce. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chopped parsley. Garnish with green onion and serve immediately.

Notes

- For the best results, pat the steak dry before seasoning.
- Don't overcrowd the pan - cook in batches if needed for the best sear.
- Let the steak come to room temperature for about 15-20 minutes before cooking for more even results.
