Instructions
Pat
the steak bites dry with paper towels. Season them with salt and pepper.
Heat
olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat.
Add
steak bites to the hot skillet in a single layer. Sear for 1 to 2 minutes per side until browned.
Remove
steak from skillet and set aside.
Add
butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add minced garlic and cook for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add
the zucchini to the skillet. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender crisp.
Return
the steak bites to the skillet. Toss everything together to coat with the garlic butter.
Cook

Notes
For a spicier dish, add red pepper flakes or smoked paprika. Keep an eye on the garlic to prevent burning.
