Garlic Butter Steak Bites and Cheesy Smashed Potatoes: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe

Ingredients

– 1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
– 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped
– 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
– Salt and pepper, to taste
– 2 lbs baby potatoes
– ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
– ¼ cup sour cream
– 2 tablespoons chives, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Making Garlic Butter Steak Bites and Cheesy Smashed Potatoes is straightforward. Follow these steps for the best results:

1. Boil Potatoes: In a large pot, add the baby potatoes and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until fork-tender.

2. Preheat Pan: While potatoes are cooking, preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat.

3. Prepare Steak: Season the steak bites with salt and pepper. Once the skillet is hot, add 2 tablespoons of butter.

4. Cook Steak: Add the steak bites in a single layer without overcrowding the pan. Sear on one side for 2-3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness.

5. Add Garlic: Lower the heat, add the remaining butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme. Toss to coat the steak bites in the garlic butter for about 1-2 minutes.

6. Smash Potatoes: Drain the cooked potatoes and transfer them to a baking sheet. Use a fork or potato masher to gently smash each potato.

7. Cheese Mixture: In a bowl, mix the smashed potatoes with the shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, salt, and pepper to taste. Blend until creamy and season as needed.

8. Bake Potatoes: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the cheesy potato mixture on the baking sheet and bake for about 15 minutes, until golden and bubbly.

9. Serve: Once the steak and potatoes are done, remove from heat. Plate the steak bites alongside cheesy smashed potatoes.

10. Garnish: Sprinkle chopped chives over the potatoes for a fresh finish.
