Ingredients

Scale

Steak and Seasoning

  • 3 teaspoons salt (or more to taste)
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 2 pounds cubed steak (sirloin or NY Strip)
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Browning sauce (optional, for color)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Potatoes

  • 2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cubed into small bite-sized pieces
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Garlic Herb Butter

  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley

Garnish

  • Parsley (for garnish)
  • Red pepper flakes (to taste)

Instructions

  1. Mix the Seasoning: In a small bowl, combine 3 teaspoons salt, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and paprika. Divide this mixture into two equal portions and set aside for later use.
  2. Prepare the Garlic Herb Butter: In another small bowl, mix the softened butter with minced garlic and chopped parsley until well blended. Set aside to allow flavors to meld.
  3. Season the Steak: Place the cubed steak in a large bowl. Add Worcestershire sauce, optional browning sauce, and half of the prepared seasoning mix. Toss everything together thoroughly to ensure even coating on all pieces.
  4. Parboil the Potatoes: Boil the cubed Yukon gold potatoes in salted water for 5 to 6 minutes until they start to soften but are not fully cooked. Drain and let cool slightly. Season with the remaining half of the seasoning mix and 1 tablespoon of olive oil, tossing to coat evenly.
  5. Sear the Steak: Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the steak cubes and sear them for 5 to 7 minutes, browning on all sides. Transfer the steak to a plate and set aside.
  6. Cook the Potatoes: In the same skillet, add the seasoned parboiled potatoes. Cook over medium-high heat for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until they are golden brown and fork-tender.
  7. Combine and Finish: Return the seared steak to the skillet with the potatoes. Stir in the garlic herb butter, tossing everything so the steak and potatoes soak up the buttery, garlicky flavor. Garnish with parsley and red pepper flakes to taste before serving.

Notes

  • Use Yukon gold potatoes for their creamy texture and ability to hold shape during cooking.
  • Parboiling the potatoes ensures they cook through evenly when sautéed.
  • Adjust salt and seasonings to taste, especially if using salted butter.
  • Optional browning sauce enhances the color but can be omitted if unavailable.
  • For a spicier kick, increase red pepper flakes to your preference.
