Ingredients

• 1.5 lbs (680g) sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 lb (450g) baby potatoes, halved
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 tbsp (30ml) olive oil, divided
• 2 tbsp (28g) unsalted butter
• 1 tsp (5g) salt
• 1/2 tsp (2g) black pepper
• 1 tsp (2g) dried rosemary
• 1 tbsp (4g) fresh rosemary, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1

Gather all ingredients: sirloin steak cubes, halved baby potatoes, minced garlic, olive oil, butter, salt, pepper, dried rosemary, and fresh rosemary for garnish.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the halved baby potatoes in a single layer, cut side down. Cook undisturbed for 5-7 minutes until golden brown and crispy. Flip and cook another 3-4 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Remove potatoes from skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels and season with remaining salt, pepper, and dried rosemary. Sear steak cubes for 2-3 minutes per side until browned and cooked to your liking (internal temperature of 135°F for medium-rare).

Step 4

Reduce heat to medium-low. Add minced garlic and butter to the skillet, stirring constantly for 1 minute until garlic is fragrant and butter is melted. Toss steak cubes in the garlic butter.

Step 5

Return the crispy potatoes to the skillet, tossing everything together to coat in the garlic butter. Cook for 1-2 minutes to reheat.

Step 6

Remove from heat. Garnish with fresh chopped rosemary and serve immediately. Enjoy your high-protein dinner!

For best results

• For maximum flavor, pat steak cubes dry before seasoning to ensure a good sear.
• Don't overcrowd the skillet when searing steak; work in batches if needed.
• Use a cast-iron skillet for the best crust on both potatoes and steak.
• For extra protein, serve with a side of Greek yogurt or a dollop of sour cream.

Variations

• Swap sirloin for ribeye or flank steak for a different texture.
• Add diced bell peppers and onions to the skillet for extra veggies.
• Make it spicy by adding red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper with the garlic.
• Use sweet potatoes instead of baby potatoes for a lower glycemic option.
