My secret to keeping dinner from feeling like a chore? Keep things simple. That’s why 15-minute steak bites are on repeat at my house. Two pounds of tender New York strip steak can stretch to feed an entire family, and when cubed and caramelized and packed with flavor, there’s no need for fancy pan sauces or steakhouse sides. In fact, just two extra ingredients do the trick.
This snapshot takes you through five easy steakhouse-style dinners. Each recipe begins with thick New York strip steak, flavored with two ingredients you likely have on hand. The hardest part is choosing which one to make tonight.
