Classic Steak Salpicao – A Filipino Comfort Classic

Classic Steak Salpicao – A Filipino Comfort Classic

If you’re looking for a dish that combines the boldness of garlic with the richness of premium beef, look no further than Steak Salpicao. This Filipino favorite, with its Spanish influence, is all about flavor and indulgence. The juicy beef cubes tossed in a savory, buttery sauce make it perfect for weeknight dinners or special occasions.

And when you make it with Classic Choice Ribeye from The Fat Butcher, you’re taking this homey dish to a whole new level. Ribeye is prized for its beautiful marbling, which melts as it cooks, giving you a tender, juicy bite every time.

Ingredients

  • 500g Classic Choice Ribeye, cut into cubes

  • 6 cloves garlic, thinly sliced

  • 3 tbsp olive oil

  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 tbsp soy sauce

  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce

  • ½ tsp black pepper

  • 1 tbsp butter

  • Chopped parsley (for garnish)

Cooking Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a pan. Fry garlic slices until golden and crisp, then set aside for garnish.

  2. In the same oil, sear the ribeye cubes over high heat until browned on all sides but still tender inside.

  3. Add Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, oyster sauce, and black pepper. Toss to coat the beef evenly.

  4. Lower the heat and stir in butter for a rich, glossy finish.

  5. Serve hot, topped with garlic chips and parsley. Pair with garlic rice for the ultimate experience.

Why This Recipe Works

  • Premium Ribeye Flavor: The fat marbling in ribeye ensures every cube is tender and juicy.

  • Balanced Sauce: The Worcestershire, soy, and oyster sauce blend creates a savory umami punch that complements—not overpowers—the beef.

  • Garlic Goodness: Crunchy garlic chips add both texture and bold flavor.

👉 Pro Tip: Don’t overcrowd the pan when searing. Giving each cube enough space ensures a perfect crust without steaming the beef.
