Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved or quartered
  • 3 tbsp butter, divided
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • spatula or tongs
  • knife
  • cutting board

Method
 

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp olive oil.
  2. Add potatoes, season with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme. Cook 10–12 minutes until fork-tender and golden. Remove and set aside.
  3. In the same skillet, add 1 tbsp butter. Place steak bites in a single layer without overcrowding. Sear 2–3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to preference. Remove and set aside.
  4. Reduce heat, add remaining 1 tbsp butter and minced garlic. Sauté 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Return steak and potatoes to skillet. Toss in garlic butter until coated. Garnish with parsley and serve warm.

Notes

For best results, use a hot skillet to achieve a good sear on the steak. Don’t overcrowd the pan or the beef will steam instead of brown. Swap sirloin with ribeye or strip steak for extra richness. Serve with a side salad or crusty bread to complete the meal.
