Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound (450g) sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes

- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Once the butter has melted, add the quartered potatoes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden brown and fork-tender.
- Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
- Sear the Steak Bites:
- In the same skillet, increase the heat to high and add 1 tablespoon of butter.
- Once the butter is sizzling, add the steak cubes in a single layer.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Sear the steak for about 1-2 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
- Remove the steak bites from the skillet and set aside.
- Prepare the Garlic Butter Sauce:
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet.
- Add the minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary.
- Sauté for about 1 minute until the garlic is fragrant.
- Combine and Serve:
- Return the cooked potatoes and steak bites to the skillet.
- Toss to coat everything evenly with the garlic butter sauce.
- Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat through.
- Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
- For even cooking, ensure that the steak pieces and potatoes are cut into uniform sizes.
- A cast-iron skillet is ideal for this recipe as it retains heat well and provides a nice sear.
- Feel free to adjust the herbs to your preference; dried herbs can be used if fresh ones are not available.
