There wasn't much to this recipe per se. It's got a few ingredients ... all of which I love. Together they are delicious. And one can never have enough garlic. 

I didn't use skirt steak. Instead I had some tritip on hand so used that. Can never go wrong with tritip either. 

This was a good and fast recipe. Most folks have all these ingredients handy. It'd be a good, quick week day recipe. 

Buttered Steak & Mushroom Bites
Recipe from 12 Tomatoes

Serves 4

• 1 1/2 lbs skirt steak
• 4 T butter, divided
• 6 oz small mushrooms such as cremini or button, sliced in half
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Cut steak into bite-sized pieces, about 1/2-inch to 3/4-inch. Season liberally with salt and pepper.

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of the butter. Swirl to coat pan and add a third of the meat.

Cook for 1 minute, then flip steak. Cook 1 minute more. Remove to a plate and repeat with remaining steak in two batches. Tent cooked steak lightly with foil.

Add remaining 2 tablespoons butter to skillet and add mushrooms. Season with a bit of salt and let mushrooms cook without stirring for 2-3 minutes. Stir and continue cooking until soft. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.

Add mushrooms and any buttery drippings to steak and stir to combine. Serve and enjoy!
