Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb beef steak (sirloin or ribeye), cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 lb baby potatoes, halved
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese (optional)

Instructions

Preparing the Potatoes

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Toss the halved baby potatoes with 1 tbsp olive oil, salt, black pepper, and paprika.
  3. Spread the potatoes on a baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until crispy and golden brown.

Cooking the Beef Bites 4. While the potatoes are roasting, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tbsp olive oil. 5. Season the beef bites with salt, black pepper, and paprika. 6. Sear the beef in the skillet in a single layer, cooking for about 2-3 minutes per side until browned and caramelized. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

Making the Garlic Butter Sauce 7. In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add butter. Once melted, stir in minced garlic and cook until fragrant (about 1 minute). 8. If using, add red pepper flakes for extra heat. 9. Return the beef bites to the skillet and toss them in the garlic butter sauce to coat evenly.

Combining the Dish 10. Once the potatoes are done roasting, transfer them to the skillet with the beef and mix well. 11. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and Parmesan cheese, if desired. 12. Serve immediately and enjoy!
