Close-up of Irresistible Garlic Butter Steak Bites & Potatoes coated in herbs and sauce on a white plate.

Simple recipe for pan-seared steak bites cooked with potatoes in a garlic butter sauce.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 lb sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 lb small potatoes, quartered
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Season the steak cubes generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add potatoes to the skillet and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned and tender. Remove potatoes and set aside.
  4. Add the seasoned steak cubes to the same skillet. Sear on all sides until browned, about 4-6 minutes total. Do not overcrowd the pan; work in batches if necessary.
  5. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the skillet.
  6. Cook, stirring constantly, until the butter melts and the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
  7. Return the cooked potatoes to the skillet. Toss everything together to coat in the garlic butter sauce.
  8. Cook for 1-2 minutes more until heated through. Taste and add more salt or pepper if needed.
  9. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • For crispier potatoes, boil them briefly before searing.
  • Use a cast-iron skillet for the best sear on the steak.
