These garlic butter steak bites are not your average butter and parsley situation. We're talking a miso compound butter with miso and gochujang that melts right into the seared steak and does something truly unhinged to your mashed potatoes.
I'm a huge garlic butter steak bites fan, and this is my version. I wanted to take something already delicious and make it even better, so I added miso and gochujang to the compound butter. The miso adds that deep, salty umami punch. The gochujang brings just enough warmth without blowing anyone's head off. Together, they create a butter sauce that makes the plain version feel like it's missing something. Trust me, you need this!
The whole thing comes together in about 15 minutes, there's no marinating involved, and it goes on top of mashed potatoes like it was always meant to be there.
