Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes
Ingredients:
- 2 large russet potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1.5 lbs (680g) sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a large bowl, toss the potato cubes with olive oil, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated. Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
- Roast the potatoes in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until they are golden and crispy, tossing halfway through the cooking time.
- Cook the Steak:
- While the potatoes are roasting, heat 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until melted and hot.
- Add the steak cubes to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter, minced garlic, thyme, and rosemary. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring frequently, until the garlic is fragrant and the herbs are well combined with the butter.
- Combine Steak and Potatoes:
- Add the cooked steak back to the skillet, along with the roasted potatoes. Toss everything together to coat the steak and potatoes in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to heat everything through.
- Serve:
- Remove the skillet from the heat. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired, and serve immediately.
Tips:
- Steak Doneness: Adjust the cooking time of the steak to your preference. Use a meat thermometer for accuracy: 130°F (54°C) for medium-rare, 140°F (60°C) for medium, and 150°F (66°C) for medium-well.
- Potato Variation: You can use baby potatoes or Yukon gold potatoes instead of russet potatoes for a different texture and flavor.
- Herb Substitution: If fresh herbs are not available, dried herbs can be used, but reduce the amount by half as dried herbs are more concentrated.
Enjoy your Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes, a hearty and flavorful meal that’s sure to satisfy!
