Directions
- Marinate the Steak: In a shallow dish, combine the cubed steak and teriyaki sauce. Stir to coat evenly, cover, and refrigerate for 1 to 8 hours.
- Sear the Steak: Drain and discard the marinade. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add the steak and cook undisturbed for 2 minutes to develop a golden crust. Stir and continue cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes until evenly browned. Transfer the steak tips to a serving bowl.
- Prepare the Sauce: Reduce the skillet heat to low. Add beef stock to deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits with a wooden spatula. Add butter and allow it to melt, approximately 30 seconds. Stir in minced chives.
- Combine and Serve: Pour the sauce over the steak tips and serve immediately.

- Vegetable Addition: Incorporate sautéed bell peppers or mushrooms into the dish for added nutrition and color.
Storage/Reheating
- Storage: Place leftover steak tips in an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days.
