Making Cowboy Butter Steak Sliders is simple yet rewarding. With the right ingredients and a bit of time, you can create this delicious dish in no time. Below are the necessary ingredients and a step-by-step guide to making your sliders.
Ingredients
Scale
For the steak:
- 4–6 mini steaks (sirloin, ribeye, or flank work well)
- Salt and pepper for seasoning
For the cowboy butter:
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the sliders:
- 12 slider buns
- Fresh lettuce or arugula (optional)
- Sliced tomatoes (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Cowboy Butter: In a mixing bowl, combine the softened butter with garlic, fresh parsley, thyme, paprika, lemon juice, and salt and pepper. Mix everything together until well blended. Set aside.
- Cook the Steak: Season the mini steaks with salt and pepper. Grill the steaks on medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes per side, depending on your desired level of doneness.
- Assemble the Sliders: Once the steak is cooked, slice it thinly against the grain. Lightly toast the slider buns on the grill or in a pan. Spread a generous amount of cowboy butter on each bun. Layer the steak slices onto the buns and top with fresh lettuce, tomato, or any additional toppings of your choice.
- Serve: Arrange the sliders on a serving platter and serve while the steak is still warm.
Notes
- Ensure your grill or pan is preheated to the right temperature before cooking the steak.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes after grilling to allow the juices to redistribute.
- If you’re using lean cuts like flank steak, consider marinating them for extra tenderness.
