Cajun Seasoning

• 1 TBS paprika
• 1 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1 tsp. onion powder
• 1 tsp. chili powder
• 3/4 tsp. dried thyme
• 1/2 tsp. dried oregano
• 1/2 tsp. brown sugar
• 1/2 tsp. (or more to your liking) Cayenne pepper
• 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper

Steak

• 24 oz. NY Strip Steak, cut into 2-inch cubes
• 2 TBS canola oil, divided

Garlic Butter

• 1/4 cup butter, softened butter
• 4 cloves of garlic, finely chopped

In a large bowl, combine Cajun seasoning. Add the cubes of steak and toss to coat. In a separate bowl, combine butter and garlic and set aside.

Heat 2 tsp. of oil in a skillet over medium to high heat. Sear the steak (if necessary, in batches) for 2-3 minutes on each side until brown. Add extra oil as needed. Remove from heat and add garlic butter to the steak and toss to coat.

Serve warm.
