Ingredients:

For the Surf and Turf:
1 lb sirloin or filet mignon, cut into bite-sized pieces
1/2 lb shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/2 lb scallops
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
Salt and pepper to taste
For the Garlic Butter Sauce:
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup chicken or seafood broth
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon paprika
Fresh parsley for garnish

 

Directions:

Sear the Proteins: Heat olive oil and butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak bites with salt and pepper and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned but still pink in the center. Remove and set aside. In the same skillet, cook shrimp and scallops for 2 minutes per side until golden and opaque. Remove and set aside.
Prepare the Garlic Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant. Stir in heavy cream, broth, lemon juice, and paprika. Simmer for 3-5 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
Combine and Serve: Return the steak, shrimp, and scallops to the skillet, tossing to coat in the sauce. Cook for 1-2 minutes to heat through. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
