Description
Juicy garlic butter beef bites with tender golden potatoes. A high protein dinner made in one pan for maximum flavor and easy cleanup.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1 inch cubes
- 1 1/2 lbs baby Yukon gold or red potatoes, halved
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp Italian seasoning
- 1 tsp salt (to taste)
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- Optional: pinch red pepper flakes; lemon wedges for serving
Instructions
1. Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels. Halve potatoes. Preheat a large skillet over medium high heat.
2. Add olive oil. Sear potatoes with a pinch of salt and pepper, 10 to 12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and tender. Transfer to a plate.
3. Add 2 tbsp butter to the skillet. Sear beef in a single layer 2 to 3 minutes per side until browned. Work in batches to avoid overcrowding. Transfer beef to the plate with potatoes.
4. Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining 2 tbsp butter and minced garlic; cook 30 seconds until fragrant. Stir in smoked paprika and Italian seasoning.
5. Return beef and potatoes to the skillet. Toss to coat in garlic butter; cook 1 to 2 minutes more to warm through. Adjust salt and pepper.
6. Finish with chopped parsley and a squeeze of lemon if desired. Serve hot.
Notes
Cut beef and potatoes into similar sizes for even cooking.
For extra browning, do not move the beef for the first 2 minutes on each side.
Keto swap: use cauliflower florets instead of potatoes; reduce cook time.
Slow cooker option: sear beef, then add everything to crockpot and cook 3 hours on high or 6 hours on low.
