Make tender, flavorful steak bites and crispy potatoes together in one skillet, coated in a rich garlic butter sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lbs sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 lb small Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 teaspoon salt, divided
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, divided
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Toss the quartered potatoes with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 0.5 teaspoon salt, and 0.25 teaspoon pepper.
  2. Heat a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes in a single layer. Cook for 10 to 12 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. Remove potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Pat the steak cubes dry with paper towels. Season the steak with the remaining 0.5 teaspoon salt and 0.25 teaspoon pepper.
  4. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil to the same skillet over high heat. Add the steak cubes in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Sear for 2 to 3 minutes per side until browned. Remove steak from the skillet and set aside with the potatoes.
  5. Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes (if using). Cook for 1 minute until fragrant, stirring constantly.
  6. Stir in the Italian seasoning. Let the garlic butter bubble for about 30 seconds.
  7. Return the cooked steak bites and crispy potatoes to the skillet. Toss everything gently to coat evenly in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes until the steak is heated through.
  8. Remove from heat. Stir in the fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For extra crispy potatoes, parboil them for 5 minutes before seasoning and pan-frying.
  • Use high-quality butter for the best sauce flavor.
  • Do not overcook the steak bites; they cook quickly once seared.
