Cozy up your dinner table with these rich and satisfying garlic butter steak bites served with creamy mashed potatoes. A perfect dish to warm your soul!
Ingredients:
- 2 lbs Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 1.5 lbs sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 4 tbsp unsalted butter (divided)
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup milk (adjust as needed)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter for cooking
- 1 tsp fresh parsley, chopped for garnish
Instructions:
1. To make the mashed potatoes, begin by boiling the cubed Yukon gold potatoes in a large pot of salted water for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until they are fork-tender. Once cooked, drain the potatoes and return them to the pot.
2. Add heavy cream, 2 tablespoons of butter, and a splash of milk to the potatoes. Mash everything together until smooth, adjusting the milk for your desired creaminess. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Keep the mashed potatoes warm until ready to serve.
3. For the steak bites, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Season the steak cubes generously with salt and pepper. Sear the steak in the hot skillet for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side, allowing them to develop a golden-brown crust. Once browned, remove the steak bites from the skillet and set them aside.
4. Lower the heat to medium, and add the remaining butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the minced garlic, stirring for about a minute to let the flavors infuse. Return the cooked steak bites to the skillet, tossing them in the garlic butter to coat evenly. Sprinkle with fresh parsley for a pop of color and flavor.
5. To serve, place a generous mound of creamy mashed potatoes on each plate, then top with the savory garlic butter steak bites. Drizzle any leftover garlic butter from the skillet over the top, and enjoy this hearty meal while it’s hot!
