Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes
Garlic butter steak and potatoes is an easy skillet dinner with juicy sirloin steak bites and golden potatoes tossed with garlic, butter and savory seasonings.
Equipment
- cast iron skillet
Ingredients
- 2 teaspoons steak seasoning , or sub for salt and pepper
- 1 pound sirloin steak
- 1 Tablespoon olive oil
- 3 Tablespoons butter
- 1 pound baby gold potatoes diced, about 3 cups
- 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning , plus more to taste
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper , to taste
- 3 cloves garlic (3 teaspoons minced)
Optional: fresh herbs such as rosemary or thyme
Instructions
- Prepare potatoes and steak. Rub 2 teaspoons steak rub (or salt and pepper) over the meat and let rest for 10-15 minutes while you cook the potatoes.
- Cook potatoes. Heat cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add 1 Tablespoon olive oil and 1 Tablespoon butter. Once butter has melted, add 1 pound potatoes into the skillet and stir until coated. Cook for a few minutes and then sprinkle 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, salt and pepper over top. Cook for 15-20 more minutes (or until fork tender), stirring occasionally to prevent burning. Set aside on a plate once cooked.
- Sear steak. While potatoes are cooking, cut steak into 1 inch cubes. Increase the heat to medium high heat and add 1 Tablespoon of butter with the steak cubes. Place evenly on the pan and let sear for 1 minute and then flip with a fork or spatula to the other side. Cook an additional 1-2 minutes or until golden brown and no longer pink. Be careful to not over cook.
- Add garlic: Add the last Tablespoon of butter and the garlic in with the meat and cook for 1 minute.
- Combine. Add the potatoes back into the skillet and remove from the heat. Top with fresh herbs if desired. Serve while warm.

Veggies: Want to add in more veggies? Add sliced onions and sliced mushrooms in with the potatoes the last 10 minutes.
Store: Store leftover steak and potatoes in the refrigerator in an airtight container up to 3 days or freeze up to 3 months in a freezer bag.
Reheat: Reheat steak in the microwave in 30 second increments until just warmed. Reheat the potatoes separately so your steak doesn't overcook. If frozen, thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
