Garlic Butter Steak Bites and Mash
Ingredients:
For the Steak Bites:
1 lb ribeye or sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes 🥩
Salt and pepper, to taste 🧂
1 tbsp olive oil 🫒
3 tbsp butter 🧈
4 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish) 🌿
For the Mashed Potatoes:
4 large russet potatoes, peeled and cubed 🥔
1/2 cup milk 🍶
1/4 cup butter 🧈
Salt and pepper, to taste 🧂
1/4 cup sour cream (optional, for extra creaminess) 🍦
Instructions:
Prepare the Mashed Potatoes:
Place the peeled and cubed potatoes into a large pot and cover them with cold water.
Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a fork.
Drain the potatoes and return them to the pot. Add the butter, milk, and sour cream (if using). Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside.
Cook the Steak Bites:
While the potatoes are cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the steak cubes with salt and pepper.
Once the skillet is hot, add the steak bites in a single layer and cook for 3-4 minutes, turning them occasionally until browned and cooked to your desired doneness.
Remove the steak bites from the skillet and set aside.
Make the Garlic Butter Sauce:
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Return the steak bites to the skillet and toss to coat them in the garlic butter sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes to allow the flavors to combine.
Serve:
Plate the mashed potatoes and top with the garlic butter steak bites.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a burst of color and flavor.
This Garlic Butter Steak Bites and Mash is a perfect combination of juicy steak, rich garlic butter, and creamy mashed potatoes. A simple but indulgent meal that’s sure to satisfy!
