Ingredients
Scale
Steak Bites
- 1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Potatoes
- 4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Peel and dice the potatoes into bite-sized pieces for even roasting.
- Season the Potatoes: Place the diced potatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well to ensure each potato piece is evenly coated.
- Roast the Potatoes: Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through to ensure they become golden brown and crispy on all sides.
- Season the Steak Bites: While the potatoes roast, season the sirloin steak cubes with salt, pepper, dried rosemary, and dried thyme, ensuring an even coating of herbs and seasoning.
- Sear the Steak: Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak cubes in a single layer and sear on each side for 3-4 minutes, or until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Garlic Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium-low. Add 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter and minced garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the butter melts and the garlic is fragrant but not browned (about 1-2 minutes).
- Combine the Dish: Return the seared steak bites to the skillet with the garlic butter sauce. Toss to coat the steak evenly in the flavorful garlic butter mixture.
- Serve: Plate the garlic butter steak bites alongside the roasted potatoes. Serve immediately while warm and enjoy this delicious, comforting meal.
Notes
- For extra tenderness, let the steak cubes come to room temperature before cooking.
- Adjust seasoning according to taste; fresh herbs can be substituted for dried if available.
- Use Yukon Gold or red potatoes for a creamier texture inside while still getting crispy outside.
- If you prefer your potatoes softer, reduce roasting time slightly and cover with foil.
- Garlic butter sauce can be enhanced with a squeeze of lemon juice or chopped fresh parsley for added brightness.
