Ingredients
Scale
Crispy Golden Potatoes
- 1 lb (450g) baby gold potatoes, halved or quartered
- 1 Tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 Tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
Garlic Butter Steak Bites
- 1.5 lbs (680g) top sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 Tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
- 3 Tablespoons (43g) unsalted butter
- 5 cloves garlic, finely minced
- 1 Tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 1 Tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
- 2 Tablespoons fresh Italian parsley, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Parboil Potatoes: Place potato halves in a medium pot, cover with cold salted water, and bring to a boil. Simmer for 5 minutes until barely fork-tender. Drain well and pat dry with paper towels.
- Crisp Potatoes: Heat 1 Tablespoon olive oil and 1 Tablespoon butter in a large heavy skillet (cast-iron or stainless steel) over medium-high heat. Add potatoes cut-side down. Cook for 4 to 5 minutes without moving until deep golden and crisp. Turn and cook 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.
- Season & Sear Steak: Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels; season generously with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Add 1 Tablespoon olive oil to the hot skillet. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, sear steak cubes for 3 to 4 minutes, turning once, until deeply caramelized and medium-rare.
- Combine with Garlic Herb Butter: Return all steak and potatoes to the skillet over low heat. Add 3 Tablespoons butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme. Baste the bubbling garlic butter over the steak and potatoes for 1 minute until fragrant.
- Garnish & Serve: Remove from heat, sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley, and serve immediately with extra pan drippings.
Notes
- Meat Cuts: Top sirloin, ribeye, or New York strip work best. Avoid stew meat as it requires long braising to become tender.
- Leftover Storage: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a hot skillet for 2 minutes to keep potatoes crisp.
