Ingredients List

For the Steak Bites:

  • 1 1/2 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp Italian seasoning
  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley (for garnish)

For the Potatoes:

  • 1 1/2 lbs baby potatoes, quartered
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Timing

  • Prep Time: 10 minutes
  • Cook Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 30 minutes

Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Cook the potatoes

In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tbsp olive oil. Add the quartered potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally until golden and tender. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.

Step 2: Sear the steak bites

Season steak cubes with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in the same skillet over high heat. Add steak in a single layer and sear for 1–2 minutes per side until browned. Don’t overcrowd—work in batches if needed. Transfer to a plate.

Step 3: Make the garlic butter sauce

Reduce heat to medium-low. Add butter and minced garlic to the skillet. Stir for 1–2 minutes until fragrant. Sprinkle in Italian seasoning.

Step 4: Combine and serve

Return steak and potatoes to the skillet. Toss everything together in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for 2–3 more minutes until heated through. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.

Tips

  • Let steak sit at room temp for 20 minutes before searing for a better crust.
  • Use Yukon Gold or red potatoes for best texture.
  • Add mushrooms or green beans for extra veggies.
