Sheet Pan Garlic Herb Butter Steak Bites with Roasted Green Beans

Ingredients

• 2 lbs grass-fed top sirloin or New York strip steak (trimmed and cut into 1.25-inch cubes)
• 1 lb fresh French green beans (haricots verts), trimmed
• 2 tbsp avocado oil (for high-heat roasting)
• 3 tbsp grass-fed clarified butter (ghee), melted
• 4 cloves garlic, finely minced
• 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves
• 1 tbsp organic coconut aminos
• 1.5 tsp coarse Celtic sea salt (divided)
• 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
• 2 tbsp fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat Oven & Broiler: Position an oven rack 5 to 6 inches below the broiler element. Preheat your oven's broiler on HIGH (or 500°F). Line an extra-large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or heavy-duty foil.
2. Season the Steak Cubes: Pat the steak cubes completely dry with paper towels. In a large bowl, toss the steak with 1 tbsp avocado oil, coconut aminos, smoked paprika, 1 tsp coarse sea salt, and 0.5 tsp black pepper until thoroughly coated.
3. Toss the Green Beans: In a separate bowl, toss trimmed green beans with 1 tbsp avocado oil, 0.5 tsp sea salt, and black pepper.
4. Arrange on Sheet Pan: Spread the green beans out on one side of the baking sheet. Place the steak cubes in a single layer on the other half of the pan, making sure they do not touch to ensure maximum browning rather than steaming.
5. High-Heat Broil: Broil on HIGH for 4 minutes. Using tongs, quickly flip the steak bites and toss the green beans. Return to the broiler for an additional 3 to 4 minutes until steak edges are caramelized and green beans are blistered and tender-crisp (135°F for medium-rare).
6. Garlic Herb Ghee Drizzle: While broiling, whisk together the melted grass-fed ghee, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, and thyme in a small bowl.
7. Finish & Serve: Immediately remove the sheet pan from the oven. Pour the sizzling garlic herb ghee directly over the hot steak bites and green beans. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Nutritional Breakdown (Per Serving)

Chef's Paleo Nutritional Science

Top sirloin is an exceptionally lean, nutrient-dense cut rich in bioavailable zinc, creatine, and phosphorus. Drizzling grass-fed ghee over lean steak reintroduces beneficial butyrate and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), enhancing cellular nutrient assimilation and delivering a deeply satisfying satiety index.
