Ingredients
1¼ lb sirloin steak, cut into ¾–1″ cubes
1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered (~½″ thick)
3–4 garlic cloves, minced
¼ cup ghee or unsalted butter (divided use)
½ tsp dried oregano
1 tsp dried thyme
½ tsp sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper
1 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Microwave potatoes with about ¼ cup water on high for 5–6 minutes until just fork‑tender.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high; add olive oil. Add potatoes, season with salt and pepper, and cook ~6 minutes until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
In the last minute, stir in half the garlic, oregano, and thyme. Remove potatoes to a bowl and keep warm.
Add half the ghee/butter to the skillet. In batches, sear steak cubes seasoned with salt/pepper, undisturbed for ~2 minutes per side until browned.
Remove steak and add remaining ghee/butter; sauté remaining garlic over medium-low for 2–3 minutes until fragrant.
Return steak and potatoes to skillet; toss in garlic‑butter sauce until evenly coated. Garnish with herbs and serve immediately.
Notes
Cut potatoes and steak uniformly for even cooking.
Do not overcrowd the skillet when searing steak to ensure proper browning.
