Glazed Steak Bites with Horseradish Whipped Cream

Enjoy this simple addition to your holiday appetizer menu. Your crowd will love these flavorful steak bites, as is, or with a dollop of snazzy whipped cream on top! 

Ingredients

4 pounds lean beef (rib eye, filet or sirloin) cut in 3/4˝ cubes
4 tablespoons oil
2 tablespoons butter

Marinade

1/2 cup olive oil
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/4 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon black pepper

Horseradish Whipped Cream

1 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons horseradish
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
Freshly ground black pepper
Pinch of sugar
Minced chives

Directions

  1. Combine marinade ingredients. Put beef into zippered bag. Pour marinade over, seal and toss to coat. Marinate, refrigerated, 30 minutes to overnight.

  2. Heat half the oil and butter in cast iron skillet to medium-high heat. Add steak pieces, making sure not to crowd (cook in batches adding oil and butter as needed). Sear until “crust” forms. 

  3. Note: Be careful not to overcook as the meat will continue cooking after removing from heat.

  4. For whipped cream: Whip cream until stiff peaks form. Fold in remaining ingredients. Garnish with chives. Serve with steak bites.
