Ingredients
Scale
Steak Bites
- 1 1/2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for garnish)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Herb Potatoes
- 1 1/2 pounds baby potatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare and cook the potatoes: Place the halved baby potatoes in a large skillet over medium heat with 1 tablespoon olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter. Season with salt, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 12–15 minutes or until the potatoes are golden and tender. Once cooked, remove the potatoes from the skillet and set them aside.
- Sear the steak bites: In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the sirloin steak cubes in a single layer (cook in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding). Sear the steak bites for 2–3 minutes per side, until browned and cooked to your preferred level of doneness.
- Add garlic butter to steak: Reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the minced garlic to the skillet. Stir the steak bites in the garlic butter for about 1 minute, allowing the garlic flavor to infuse and coat the meat.
- Combine potatoes and steak: Return the cooked potatoes to the skillet with the steak. Toss everything together gently to combine and reheat the potatoes.
- Garnish and serve: Sprinkle the chopped fresh parsley over the steak bites and herb potatoes. Serve the dish warm for a flavorful and comforting meal.
Notes
- Make sure the steak is at room temperature before cooking to ensure even searing.
- For a spicy kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes with the garlic butter during cooking.
- If using dried herbs instead of fresh, reduce quantity by half.
- Cook steak bites in batches if your skillet is small to avoid overcrowding and steaming rather than searing.
