Description

This garlic butter steak bites with roasted potatoes recipe is a fast, one-skillet dinner. Tender juicy steak, golden potatoes, and garlic butter sauce make it rich, quick, and comforting.


Ingredients

1 lb top sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes

1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes, diced

4 cloves garlic, minced

2 tbsp unsalted butter

2 tbsp olive oil

1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Salt and pepper, to taste


Instructions

1. Microwave the diced potatoes with a splash of water for 4–5 minutes, then drain and pat dry.

2. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a cast iron skillet and sear potatoes until golden and crispy. Set aside.

3. Pat steak cubes dry. Add remaining oil to skillet and sear steak in a single layer until browned on all sides.

4. Lower heat. Add butter and garlic. Baste the steak gently with melted butter until garlic softens.

5. Return potatoes to skillet. Toss everything together and garnish with parsley. Rest for 5 minutes before serving.


Notes

Microwaving potatoes first guarantees soft centers without burning.

Bring steak to room temperature before searing to get a better crust.

Add a splash of Worcestershire or soy sauce to deglaze for extra umami.
