Garlic Butter Steak Bites with Herb Mashed
Potatoes
Ingredients:
For the Steak Bites:
- 1.5 lbs (700g) sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
For the Herb Mashed Potatoes:
- 4 large potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup milk (or heavy cream for richer flavor)
- 1/4 cup sour cream (optional)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh chives, chopped
Instructions:
- Prepare the Potatoes:
- Place the potato chunks in a large pot and cover with cold water. Add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil.
- Cook the potatoes until they are fork-tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain well.
- Mash the Potatoes:
- Return the drained potatoes to the pot. Add the butter, milk, and sour cream (if using).
- Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Stir in the chopped parsley, chives, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep warm.
- Prepare the Steak Bites:
- Season the steak bites with salt and pepper.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the steak bites in a single layer (you may need to cook them in batches).
- Cook the steak bites for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove the steak bites from the skillet and set aside.
- Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:
- In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the butter and minced garlic.
- Cook the garlic for about 1 minute until fragrant, being careful not to burn it.
- Return the steak bites to the skillet and toss to coat them in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes.
- Serve:
- Plate the herb mashed potatoes and top with the garlic butter steak bites.
- Garnish with additional chopped parsley if desired.
