For a less spicy version, reduce or omit the cayenne pepper. To ensure even cooking, cut the steak into uniformly sized pieces. A cast iron skillet works great for frying these steak bites as it maintains heat well. Feel free to experiment with different seasoning blends to customize the flavor to your liking. A chili-lime seasoning would also be delicious!
