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
Roasted 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 Potatoes: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place the diced potatoes on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat all the pieces evenly.
- Roast Potatoes: Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, flipping them halfway through the cooking time to ensure they become golden and crispy on all sides.
- Season Steak: While the potatoes are roasting, season the sirloin steak cubes with salt, pepper, dried rosemary, and dried thyme to infuse the meat with aromatic flavors.
- Sear Steak Bites: Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak cubes and sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked to your preferred doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Create Garlic Butter Sauce: In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium, add the unsalted butter and minced garlic. Sauté briefly until fragrant, making sure not to burn the garlic. This will create a flavorful garlic butter sauce.
- Combine Steak with Sauce: Return the steak bites to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter sauce to coat evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to meld the flavors together.
- Serve: Plate the garlic butter steak bites alongside the roasted potatoes immediately while hot for a satisfying meal.
Notes
- Use leftover steak bites for sandwiches or salads.
- Adjust seasoning according to taste preferences.
- For extra crispy potatoes, soak diced potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes before roasting and dry thoroughly.
- Use fresh herbs if available for enhanced flavor.
- Ensure the skillet is hot before adding steak to achieve a good sear.
