Ingredients

Scale

Protein:

  • 1.5 lbs beef sirloin or ribeye steak

Vegetables:

  • 1.5 lbs baby potatoes
  • 4 cloves garlic

Seasonings and Fats:

  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley
  • 1/2 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried rosemary

Instructions

  1. Wash baby potatoes thoroughly and slice them into halves, ensuring uniform size for even cooking.
  2. Preheat oven to 425°F and prepare a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  3. Toss potato halves with olive oil, salt, pepper, dried thyme, and dried rosemary, coating them evenly.
  4. Spread potatoes on the baking sheet cut-side down and roast for 25-30 minutes until golden and crispy.
  5. While potatoes are roasting, pat beef sirloin dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  6. Cut steak into bite-sized cubes, roughly 1-inch pieces, ensuring consistent size for uniform cooking.
  7. Mince garlic cloves finely to release maximum flavor.
  8. Heat a large skillet over high heat and add remaining olive oil.
  9. Sear steak bites for 2-3 minutes, creating a rich golden-brown crust, turning to cook all sides.
  10. Reduce heat to medium and add butter and minced garlic to the skillet.
  11. Quickly baste steak bites with garlic butter for an additional 1-2 minutes, creating a luxurious coating.
  12. Remove steak from heat when internal temperature reaches desired doneness.
  13. Transfer roasted potatoes to a serving platter and top with garlic butter steak bites.
  14. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant, aromatic finish.

Notes

  • Potato Sizing Matters: Cut potatoes into uniform halves to guarantee consistent roasting and prevent uneven cooking.
  • Moisture Removal Technique: Thoroughly pat steak dry before cutting to achieve a perfect golden-brown sear and enhance caramelization.
  • High-Heat Searing Secret: Use a scorching hot skillet to develop a rich, flavorful crust on steak bites without overcooking the interior.
  • Butter Basting Magic: Quickly baste steak with garlic butter in the final cooking moments to infuse extra richness and depth of flavor.
