To achieve maximum flavor in your steak bites, the seasoning process is crucial. Start with high-quality steak, such as sirloin or ribeye, cut into evenly sized cubes (about 1-1.5 inches) to ensure they cook uniformly. Season the steak generously with kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper. This basic seasoning enhances the natural flavors of the beef. For an extra flavor boost, consider adding garlic powder, onion powder, or smoked paprika. These spices will complement the garlic butter you’ll use later in the cooking process.

Ingredients
  

1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes

3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)

1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 lb baby potatoes, halved

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon smoked paprika (optional)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prep the Potatoes:

    - Begin by preheating your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a large mixing bowl, add the halved baby potatoes. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and smoked paprika (if using). Toss thoroughly until the potatoes are evenly coated in the mixture.

      Roast the Potatoes:

        - Arrange the seasoned potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place them in the preheated oven and roast for approximately 25-30 minutes, or until they turn golden brown and crispy. Flip the potatoes halfway through the cooking time to ensure even browning.

          Sear the Steak Bites:

            - While the potatoes are roasting, generously season the steak cubes with salt and pepper on all sides. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high heat until it starts to foam.

              Cook Steak Bites:

                - Once the butter is hot and bubbling, add the steak bites to the skillet in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding). Sear each side for about 2-3 minutes, until the steak is nicely browned and reaches your desired level of doneness.

                  Add Flavor:

                    - Lower the heat to low and introduce the minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and thyme to the skillet. Stir the mixture well and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, allowing the garlic to become aromatic and the steak bites to soak up the herb-infused butter. Once done, remove the skillet from the heat.

                      Combine and Serve:

                        - After the potatoes have finished roasting, take them out of the oven and toss them with the remaining tablespoon of butter. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if desired. Plate the garlic butter steak bites alongside the crispy potatoes, garnished with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color.

                          Enjoy this delightful dish bursting with flavors and perfect for any occasion!
