Ingredients
- 1 pound steak (sirloin or your choice), cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
- Olive oil for cooking
Steps to Culinary Bliss
1. Prep Your Ingredients
Start by cutting your steak into bite-sized pieces and halving those adorable baby potatoes. I like to pretend I’m a professional chef doing some serious knife skills—feel free to channel your inner Gordon Ramsay, just remember: this is home cooking, not a competition!
2. Cook the Potatoes
In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Toss in those potato halves and cook until fork-tender—about 10-12 minutes should do the trick. Drain them, and let them hang out until we’re ready to combine everything.
3. Sear the Steak Bites
Now for the star of the show! In a large skillet, heat up a splash of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season your steak bites with salt and pepper, then add them to the pan. Sear until they reach that perfect brown color—around 3-4 minutes. Pro tip: resist the urge to overcrowd the pan; we want those babies to get nice and crispy!
4. Add in the Flavor
Reduce the heat to medium, and toss in the butter and minced garlic. Let them melt together, coating the steak bites and sending your kitchen’s aroma into overdrive. Seriously, at this point, your house is going to start feeling like a five-star restaurant!
5. Combine with Potatoes
Lastly, add your cooked potatoes to the skillet and stir to combine everything. Let them mingle for a minute so they soak up all that garlicky goodness. If you’re feeling fancy, sprinkle some fresh parsley on top for a pop of color and extra flavor.
Cooking Tips
- Don’t fret if your steak bites look a bit irregular—they’re meant to be rustic; it’s called ‘character’!
- You can easily swap the steak for chicken or tofu if you’re feeling adventurous or accommodating picky eaters.
- If you want extra crispy potatoes, toss them in the skillet with a little olive oil before the steak to crisp them up!

FAQs
Can I substitute the steak in this recipe?
Absolutely! If you have chicken or even cauliflower on hand, feel free to substitute. It’s all about using what you have and making it work for your taste buds!

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. When you’re ready to enjoy them again, a quick reheating in the skillet will do wonders!
