Ingredients
Scale
- 1.5 lbs (680 g) sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch chunks
- 1 lb (454 g) Yukon Gold or Red Potatoes, cut into ½ inch chunks
- 4 whole garlic cloves, minced
- 4 tbsps butter, divided
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- Fresh chopped parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Potato Preparation: Dice potatoes and season with minced garlic, oregano, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Sauté in a cast iron or non-stick skillet with butter and olive oil over medium-high heat until golden and fork-tender.
- Potato Staging: Transfer perfectly caramelized potatoes to a separate bowl, reserving for later integration into the final dish.
- Steak Searing: Increase skillet temperature to high, adding additional butter. Arrange steak bites in a single layer, allowing uninterrupted searing to develop a rich, caramelized exterior.
- Meat Cooking: Gently maneuver steak bites, continuing to cook until reaching desired doneness while preserving their succulent texture.
- Flavor Fusion: Remove skillet from heat, reuniting cooked potatoes with steak bites. Toss gently to harmonize flavors and equalize temperatures.
- Final Garnish: Sprinkle fresh chopped parsley over the dish, adding visual vibrancy and herbaceous complexity.
- Serving and Storage: Present the rustic dish directly from the skillet for maximum sensory impact. Store any remaining portions in an airtight container, refrigerating and consuming within three days to maintain optimal taste and quality.
Notes
- Sear with Precision: Use high heat and avoid overcrowding the skillet to achieve a perfect golden-brown crust on steak bites.
- Choose Quality Meat: Select well-marbled cuts like ribeye or sirloin for maximum tenderness and rich flavor.
- Temperature Control: Let steak bites rest at room temperature before cooking to ensure even cooking and juicier results.
- Herb Freshness Matters: Use fresh herbs instead of dried for more vibrant and intense flavor in the garlic herb potatoes.
