Chimichurri Steak Bites

Tender steak bites are seared to perfection and topped with a vibrant chimichurri sauce for a quick, flavorful, and crowd-pleasing meal.
Quick, vibrant, and irresistibly good — these chimichurri steak bites are a weeknight dinner you’ll want on repeat.
Tender bites of steak are seasoned with a simple blend of smoked paprika, salt, and pepper, then seared until perfectly golden and juicy. A generous drizzle of garlicky, herb-packed chimichurri takes them over the top, adding bright, fresh, zesty flavor to every bite. I usually make these steak bites in a skillet, but they’re just as delicious cooked as whole steaks or threaded onto skewers for kabobs — whatever works best for you!
We fell in love with chimichurri thanks to our Argentinian friends, who showed us just how magical this fresh herb sauce can be. Ever since, it’s become one of our favorite ways to dress up proteins and bring a burst of flavor to weeknight dinners. It’s always a winner!
