Description
A quick and comforting skillet meal featuring seared sirloin steak and golden baby potatoes, finished with a robust garlic butter sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ lbs sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1½ lbs baby potatoes, halved or quartered
- 4 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 4 tablespoons butter
- 5–6 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add the potatoes in a single layer, season with salt, pepper, and paprika, and cook until golden and fork-tender, about 15 minutes. Adjust heat if necessary.
- Remove the potatoes to a plate and set aside.
- Pat steak cubes dry and season with salt, pepper, and Italian herbs.
- Increase heat to medium-high, add 1 tablespoon olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter to the skillet, and sear steak in batches for 2–3 minutes per side until browned but still juicy.
- Reduce heat to medium-low, add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and minced garlic, and sauté until fragrant, 30–60 seconds.
- Return potatoes to the pan, toss gently to coat with garlic butter, and cook for an additional 1–2 minutes to heat through.
- Taste and adjust seasoning, garnish with chopped parsley, and serve hot.
