Ingredients
For the Steak and Potatoes:
1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into ½-inch cubes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 ¼ lb sirloin steak, cut into ½-inch cubes
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon sea salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons ghee or butter, divided
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
Cook the Potatoes: Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the cubed potatoes, season with ½ teaspoon sea salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper, and cook for 6–8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden and fork-tender. Remove potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
Sear the Steak: Increase the heat to medium-high, and add 2 tablespoons of ghee or butter to the same skillet. Once melted, add the cubed steak, seasoning with ½ teaspoon sea salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, ensuring a good sear.
Add Garlic and Herbs: Stir in the minced garlic, dried thyme, and dried oregano, sautéing for 1–2 minutes until fragrant.
Combine and Serve: Return the cooked potatoes to the skillet, tossing them with the steak and garlic herb mixture. Cook for another 2–3 minutes to heat everything through. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
Notes
You can substitute Yukon Gold potatoes with other small varieties like yellow, red, or fingerling potatoes.
For an alternative to sirloin, try tender cuts like ribeye, strip steak, or beef tenderloin.
Experiment with different herbs such as rosemary, basil, or parsley to adjust the flavor to your liking.
