Kitchen Equipment You’ll Need
- Mixing bowls
- Electric mixer
- Spatula
- Baking sheet
- Parchment paper
- Spoon for scooping
Ingredients
- 2-4 petite steaks (see note below)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Garlic powder to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2-4 pounds baby potatoes, diced
- 2-6 tablespoons salted butter, softened (one tablespoon per steak, plus two tablespoons for the potatoes)
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herb blend
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. In a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic, and dried herbs, then set aside.
- Generously season the steaks with salt, pepper, and garlic powder on both sides.
- Place a skillet over medium-high heat and drizzle with olive oil. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are nicely browned. Transfer the steaks to a plate and set aside.
- Add the diced potatoes to the skillet, seasoning generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Sauté for 3-5 minutes until browned.
- Push the potatoes to one side of the pan and return the steaks to the other side.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes until the potatoes are fork-tender and the steak is cooked to your preferred doneness.
- Immediately after removing from the oven, place a dollop of the garlic butter on each steak and the remaining butter on the potatoes. Let it melt over the food, then stir the potatoes to coat in butter. Top with chopped thyme and parsley before serving.
Tips for Success
- Ensure your steaks are about 1 inch thick to avoid overcooking.
- Use a cast-iron skillet for the best sear on your steak.
Additional Tips or Variations
This recipe is versatile and works well with various cuts of beef. Choose steaks that are about 4-6 inches long to fit comfortably in a 12-inch skillet alongside the potatoes. Experiment with different herbs or add a splash of lemon juice for extra flavor.
