Maple Balsamic Glazed Steak Bites are tender and flavorful steak cubes coated in a sweet and tangy balsamic glaze, perfect for a quick meal or appetizer.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb steak sirloin or ribeye, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/2 tsp fresh thyme leaves (optional)

Instructions

  1. Season the steak cubes generously with salt and pepper on all sides. Let them sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes to ensure even cooking.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak cubes in a single layer (work in batches if needed). Sear each side for 1-2 minutes until golden brown and crusty. Remove the steak bites and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, lower the heat slightly and melt the butter. Stir in balsamic vinegar, maple syrup, soy sauce, and minced garlic. Simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing the glaze to thicken slightly.
  4. Return the seared steak bites to the skillet, tossing them in the luscious glaze. Let them cook for another 1-2 minutes, just until warmed through and sticky. Sprinkle with fresh thyme, if desired, and serve hot.

Notes

  • What to Serve with Maple Balsamic Glazed Steak Bites: Roasted Vegetables: Think crispy Brussels sprouts, carrots, or asparagus. Creamy Sides: Mashed potatoes or cauliflower puree pair beautifully. Fresh Salad: A simple arugula or spinach salad adds a refreshing contrast.
  • Pro Tips for Success: Room Temperature Steak: Starting with room-temperature steak ensures a better sear. Batch Cooking: Avoid overcrowding the skillet to keep the steak from steaming instead of searing.
