Ingredients

  • 1 lb. of steak bites (sirloin or ribeye works great)
  • 1/2 lb. of small potatoes

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of oil. Once the butter has melted, add the steak bites. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
  2. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the diced potatoes. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the potatoes are golden brown and crispy.
  3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
  4. Add the cooked steak back into the skillet and stir to combine with the garlic butter sauce.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve hot.

Chef’s Pro Tips, Variations & Storage Guide

Make-Ahead & Prep Tip: You can prep all of your dry and wet ingredients up to 24 hours in advance and keep them covered in the refrigerator. Bringing cold ingredients closer to room temperature for 15 minutes before cooking helps everything cook evenly and locks in maximum flavor and tenderness.

Flavor Variations: Feel free to customize the seasoning profile to suit your family’s taste—add a pinch of smoked paprika or cayenne for gentle warmth, fresh chopped herbs right before serving for brightness, or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice to balance rich, savory gravies and sauces.

Storage & Reheating: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat gently on the stovetop over medium-low heat or in the oven at 325°F (165°C) with a splash of broth, milk, or water so the dish stays moist and tastes just as delicious as the day it was made.
