Bacon-Wrapped Steak Bites Appetizer Recipe

Prepare Steak Bites

Cut the beef tenderloin into bite-sized pieces, about 1 inch thick. Wrap each piece with a slice of peppered bacon and secure with a toothpick.

Prepare Onion Tanglers

Slice the onions thinly and soak them in buttermilk for at least 30 minutes. In a separate bowl, mix flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Coat the Onions

Remove the onions from the buttermilk, letting excess drip off. Toss them in the flour mixture until fully coated.

Fry the Onion Tanglers

In a large skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Fry the coated onions in batches until golden brown and crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

Cook the Steak Bites

In the same skillet, add the bacon-wrapped steak bites and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until the bacon is crispy and the steak is cooked to your desired doneness.

Make Garlic Butter Dipping Sauce

In a small saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add minced fresh garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Stir in chopped parsley.

Serve

Remove toothpicks from steak bites, arrange on a platter with crispy onion tanglers, and serve with garlic butter dipping sauce on the side.
