Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450 g) steak (sirloin, ribeye, or tenderloin), cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 pound (450 g) baby potatoes, halved or quartered if large
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (optional, for heat)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the potatoes:
    • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
    • Add the potatoes and season with salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Cook for 10–12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and tender. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
  2. Sear the steak:
    • In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over high heat.
    • Season the steak cubes with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning.
    • Add the steak to the skillet in a single layer. Sear for 2–3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Make the garlic butter sauce:
    • Reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter to the skillet and let it melt.
    • Stir in the minced garlic and chili flakes (if using). Cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  4. Combine and finish:
    • Return the potatoes and steak to the skillet. Toss everything together in the garlic butter sauce until well coated and heated through, about 2 minutes.
  5. Serve:
    • Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot. Pair with a green salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.

Notes

  • For a variation, add vegetables like green beans, asparagus, or bell peppers during the last few minutes of cooking.
  • Use Yukon Gold or red potatoes for a creamy texture inside and crispy edges.
  • Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated on the stovetop.
