Instructions
1. Prepare the Roasted Potatoes:
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, rosemary or thyme, salt, and pepper.
Spread the potatoes out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden brown and crispy.
2. Cook the Steak Bites:
Prepare the Steak: Pat the steak cubes dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
Sear the Steak: Heat a large skillet (cast iron preferred) over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil and let it heat until shimmering. Add the steak bites in a single layer (work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding) and sear for about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove the steak bites and set aside.
Make the Garlic Butter: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Melt the butter, then stir in the minced garlic and thyme. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Combine: Return the steak bites to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter for 1-2 minutes to coat evenly.
3. Serve:
Arrange the roasted potatoes on a serving plate or individual plates.
Top with the garlic butter steak bites.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately.
Optional Additions:
Vegetables: Add sautéed green beans, asparagus, or a fresh side salad for a complete meal.
Spice it Up: Sprinkle red chili flakes over the steak bites for a hint of heat.
Enjoy your juicy Garlic Butter Steak Bites with Roasted Potatoes—a perfect combination of crispy, tender, and savory flavors!
