Prepare the Steak Bites: While the potatoes are roasting, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak cubes with salt, pepper, rosemary, and thyme. Add the steak bites to the hot skillet and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Once the steak is cooked, remove it from the skillet and set it aside. In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic. Combine the Dish: Return the steak bites to the skillet with the garlic butter and toss to coat evenly. Serve: Serve the garlic butter steak bites with the crispy roasted potatoes on the side. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

FAQs How do I make sure the steak stays tender? I recommend not overcooking the steak and letting it rest after searing to ensure it stays juicy and tender. Can I use a different cut of beef for the steak bites? Yes! Cuts like ribeye or flank steak would also work well in this recipe. Just make sure to adjust cooking times based on the thickness of the cuts. Can I make this dish ahead of time? While it’s best fresh, you can prepare the potatoes ahead of time and store them in the fridge. Reheat them in the oven before serving. Can I use frozen potatoes for this recipe? Fresh potatoes will give the best texture, but frozen potatoes can work too. Just be sure to adjust the roasting time. Is there a way to make this dish spicier? Absolutely! Add some red pepper flakes to the garlic butter or season the potatoes with cayenne pepper for a bit of heat.
