Ingredients
  

1 lb sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces

1 lb baby potatoes, halved

4 tablespoons unsalted butter

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)

1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried)

Salt and pepper, to taste

2 tablespoons olive oil

½ cup beef broth

Optional: Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Prep the Potatoes: Begin by boiling a pot of salted water. Add the halved baby potatoes and cook for 10-12 minutes until they are just tender but not falling apart. Drain and set aside.

    Sear the Steak: In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the steak pieces with salt and pepper. When the oil is hot, add the steak to the skillet in a single layer. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until nicely browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove the steak from the skillet and set it aside.

      Cook the Potatoes: In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the boiled potatoes. Cook for about 5-7 minutes until the potatoes start to brown and crisp on one side. Stir occasionally to ensure they cook evenly.

        Make the Garlic Butter Sauce: Push the potatoes to one side of the skillet, then add the butter, minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme to the empty side. Stir until the butter melts, and the garlic becomes fragrant (about 1-2 minutes).

          Combine Ingredients: Pour in the beef broth to deglaze the skillet, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom. Return the steak to the skillet, tossing everything together to combine and heat through.

            Serve: Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired and serve hot from the skillet.
