Lemon Garlic Butter Steak & Broccoli Skillet

Lemon Garlic Butter Steak & Broccoli Skillet

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 lb sirloin steak sliced against the grain
  • 2 c broccoli florets
  • 2 Tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 3 Tbsp butter or ghee
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1/4 c beef stock low sodium
  • 1/4 c fresh parsley chopped, plus more for garnish
  • 1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Fresh cracked pepper to taste
  • fresh thyme for garnish

for steak marinade

  • 1/3 c low-sodium soy sauce
  • 1/2 c olive oil
  • 1 tsp sriracha or other hot chili sauce

Instructions
 

  • Combine the ingredients for the marinade (soy sauce, olive oil and hot sauce) in a shallow plate or bowl. Add the steak strips into the marinade and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to one hour.
  • In the meantime, wash and break down the broccoli heads into florets. Blanch the florets into boiling water for 1 or 2 minutes, then rinse with cold water.
  • Bring the steak to room temperature and heat oil and one tablespoon butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat — reserve the juices of the marinade for later. Sear the steak strips in batches for 1-2 minutes each side until edges are crispy and browned, adding extra oil if needed. Remove the steak strips from the skillet and set aside to a plate.
  • Using the same skillet, lower the heat to medium. Melt 2 tablespoons butter, then add lemon juice, minced garlic, beef broth, and remaining marinade juices. Bring to a simmer then stir in the fresh parsley and broccoli florets and toss regularly until the sauce a reduced and the broccoli is cooked to your liking.
  • Add the steak strips back to the pan to reheat quickly. Serve immediately with thyme, chili flakes, more parsley, and lemon slices.
