Ingredients

Scale

For the Steak Bites

  • 1 lb steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 3 tbsp butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

For the Mashed Potatoes

  • 4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • Prepare the Mashed Potatoes
    • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the peeled and cubed potatoes. Cook for 15 minutes or until fork-tender.
    • Drain the water and return the potatoes to the pot.
    • Add 1/4 cup of butter, 1/2 cup of milk, and season with salt and pepper to taste.
    • Mash until creamy and smooth. Cover to keep warm.
  • Cook the Steak Bites
    • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
    • Season the steak bites with salt and pepper, then sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
    • In the same skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter and add minced garlic. Sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
    • Return the steak bites to the skillet, tossing them in the garlic butter. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.
  • Serve
    • Spoon mashed potatoes onto plates, then top with garlic butter steak bites.
    • Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy!

Notes

  • For a dairy-free option, substitute the butter with olive oil or a plant-based alternative, and use almond or oat milk in the mashed potatoes.
  • Want to elevate the dish? Add a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese over the mashed potatoes before serving.
  • Steak doneness tip: Use a meat thermometer to ensure your steak bites are cooked to your preference (135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium).
  • Mashed potatoes can be made ahead and reheated with a splash of milk to restore their creamy texture.
