Ingredients
- 2 lbs top sirloin steak cut into 1.5-inch cubes
- 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp ketchup
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp olive oil for cooking
- Optional: 1 onion sliced; 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
Instructions
Cut the Steak
- Trim fat from sirloin. Slice into 1.5-inch cubes. Uniform size cooks evenly. Pat dry with paper towels.
Make the Marinade
- Whisk Worcestershire, soy sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, garlic powder, paprika, salt and pepper. Tastes just like IHOP.
Marinate the Meat
- Toss steak cubes in marinade. Cover bowl. Let sit 30 mins at room temp. Or fridge overnight for bold flavor.
Heat the Pan
- Warm cast iron skillet over high heat. Add olive oil. Wait till it shimmers and smokes lightly.
Sear the Steak Tips
- Add steak in single layer. No crowding. Sear 3-4 mins per side. Medium-rare hits 135°F inside.
Add Veggies (Optional)
- Toss in sliced onions and mushrooms last 2 mins. They soak up juices. Stir well.
Rest and Serve
- Remove from heat. Let rest 5 mins. Juices lock in. Perfect every time.
Notes
- Marinate overnight for deepest IHOP flavor.
- Use ribeye for richer taste if splurging.
- Add Coke to marinade for extra tenderness.
- Grill instead of pan for smoky summer vibes.
- Spice up with cayenne for heat lovers.
- Low-carb? Skip sugar, use stevia.
