Ingredients
For the Steak Bites
- 1.5 pounds sirloin steak (trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (divided)
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 6 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried)
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (finely chopped)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce

For the Potatoes

- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Preparation
- Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly under cold water and cut them into halves or quarters.
- Soak the cut potatoes in cold water for 10 minutes, then pat them dry.
Roasting Potatoes
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Toss the potatoes with olive oil, minced garlic, Italian herbs, paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through.
Preparing the Steak
- Pat the cubed steak dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
Cooking Steak Bites
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over high heat until smoking.
- Add half the steak cubes in a single layer and cook for 1-2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and repeat for the remaining steak.
Making the Garlic Butter Sauce
- Reduce heat to medium and return all steak to the skillet.
- Add butter, minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for 1-2 minutes, tossing to coat.
- Add soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce and toss to incorporate.
Combine and Serve
- Once the potatoes are golden and tender, fold them into the skillet with steak and sauce.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and let rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Notes
For a spicy variation, add red pepper flakes to the butter sauce. For best results, avoid overcrowding the pan while cooking steak and ensure ingredients are room temperature before cooking.
