1 pound sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 pound baby potatoes, halved
½ cup unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
Prepare the potatoes:
Toss the halved baby potatoes with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, ½ teaspoon of salt, and ¼ teaspoon of black pepper. Spread them on a baking sheet and roast for 20–25 minutes until golden and crisp on the outside.
Sear the steak bites:
While the potatoes are roasting, heat the remaining olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak cubes with the remaining salt and pepper. Add them to the skillet in a single layer, cooking for 2–3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness. Remove the steak and set it aside.
Make the garlic butter sauce:
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1–2 minutes until fragrant and slightly golden.
Combine everything:
Return the steak bites to the skillet and stir to coat them in the garlic butter. Add the roasted potatoes and gently toss to combine all ingredients. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve immediately.
Serve this dish hot, directly from the skillet for a rustic, comforting presentation. It pairs wonderfully with a light salad, steamed vegetables, or even a simple crusty bread to soak up the extra garlic butter sauce.
