Ingredients
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 lb baby potatoes cut into fourths
- 3 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tsp each: fresh thyme, rosemary, and parsley
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes (or to taste)
- 1 ¼ lb sirloin steak cut into 1-inch cubes
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Melt one tbsp of butter and ½ tbsp of olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat.’
- Add the potatoes, minced garlic, fresh herbs, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper and cook them until tender, about 6 minutes. Stir them every few minutes to ensure proper cooking. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
- Using a slotted spoon, discard any pieces of burnt garlic that may have stuck to the bottom of the skillet and melt the remaining butter and olive oil.
- Season the sirloin bites with salt and pepper, and add them to the skillet. Do not move them for two minutes so they sear properly.
- Continue cooking them until seared on all sides and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Return the potatoes to the skillet.
- Cook for an additional minute to heat them through.
Notes
- Make sure the skillet is very hot before browning the meat and don’t touch it for about 2 minutes until it is well seared on each side.
- Try to cut the potatoes and steak bites roughly the same size so they cook evenly.
- Remove any burnt bits and pieces of garlic before placing the meat on the skillet.
