Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat steak cubes completely dry with paper towels — moisture is the enemy of a good sear. Season aggressively with smoked paprika, onion powder, salt, and plenty of black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Heat olive oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat until it begins to smoke lightly. Add steak cubes in a single layer without overcrowding — work in 2 batches if needed. Sear undisturbed for 2 minutes until a deep brown crust forms, then toss and sear another 1–2 minutes for medium (internal temp 135°F). Transfer to a plate to rest.

  3. 3

    Reduce heat to medium. Add butter to the same skillet and let it melt and foam. Add minced garlic and cook 1–2 minutes, stirring constantly, until golden and fragrant — watch carefully as garlic burns quickly. Add Worcestershire sauce and stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Return steak to the pan and toss to coat in the garlic butter. Divide rice and green beans among 4 bowls, top with steak bites, and spoon the pan sauce over everything. Garnish with fresh parsley.
