1 large skillet
1 mixing bowl
1 cutting board
1 chef's knife
1 tongs or spatula
1 measuring spoons
1 potato peeler
- 1.5 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 4 cloves garlic, minced Adjust the amount of garlic to your preference.
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped For garnish.
Start by washing and halving the baby potatoes. In a large mixing bowl, combine the potatoes with 2 tablespoons of melted butter, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika. Toss until the potatoes are well-coated.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned potatoes in a single layer and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the cubed steak, seasoning it with the remaining salt, black pepper, and dried thyme. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the steak is browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the steak and sauté for an additional 1-2 minutes, ensuring the garlic does not burn.
Return the crispy potatoes to the skillet and gently toss with the steak and garlic butter until well combined.
Remove from heat and garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
Adjust the amount of garlic to your preference; feel free to add more for a stronger flavor.
For extra heat, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes while cooking the steak.
This dish pairs well with a simple side salad or steamed vegetables.
