Instructions

1. Prepare the Oven

2. Season the Steak

  • Place steak cubes in a bowl.

  • Toss until evenly coated.

3. Prepare the Asparagus

  • Arrange asparagus on one side of the sheet pan.

  • Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  • Toss lightly to coat.

4. Make the Garlic Butter

  • In a small bowl, combine melted butter, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, and parsley.

5. Arrange on the Pan

  • Spread the steak bites on the other side of the sheet pan in a single layer.
  • Drizzle half of the garlic butter mixture over the steak.
  • Drizzle the remaining garlic butter over the asparagus.

6. Roast

  • Bake for 10–12 minutes for medium-rare steak.
