  • Total Time: 55 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

Steak & Potatoes

  • 4 Tablespoons butter, divided
  • 1 Tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound potatoes, cut into bite size pieces
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 Tablespoon fresh rosemary, finely chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon fresh oregano, finely chopped
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
  • 2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ Cup water
  • 2 Tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped

Instructions

  1. Heat Butter and Oil: Add 1 tablespoon butter and olive oil to a skillet over medium heat to prepare the pan for sautéing.
  2. Cook Potatoes with Herbs and Garlic: Once the oil is hot, add the potatoes, minced garlic, fresh rosemary, oregano, and ½ teaspoon kosher salt. Cook for about 5 minutes until the garlic turns golden brown and the potatoes begin to soften.
  3. Steam Potatoes: Pour ¼ cup water into the skillet, cover the pan, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook for 5 to 10 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender. Remove potatoes to a bowl and tent with foil to keep warm.
  4. Sear the Steak: Add remaining butter to the pan and raise heat to medium-high. When the butter has melted, add the steak pieces. Season with the remaining ½ teaspoon salt and black pepper. Cook until steak pieces develop a nice brown crust and reach your preferred doneness.
  5. Combine Potatoes and Steak: Return the cooked potatoes to the skillet with the steak. Stir together and cook for 1-2 minutes to heat everything through evenly.
  6. Finish with Parsley: Stir in the fresh parsley just before serving to add a burst of freshness.

Notes

  • For evenly cooked potatoes, cut them into uniform bite-sized pieces.
  • You can substitute sirloin with ribeye or strip steak for a richer flavor.
  • Adjust cooking time of the steak bites based on your preferred level of doneness.
  • Use fresh herbs for the best flavor impact, but dried herbs can be used in a pinch (reduce quantity by half).
  • Covering the potatoes while cooking with water helps steam them to fork-tender perfection without drying out.
