🧄 Ingredients
For the Steak Bites
- 1 pound (450 g) sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons garlic, minced
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs (optional)
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
For the Cheesy Smashed Potatoes
- 1 ½ pounds (700 g) baby potatoes or small yellow potatoes
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheese (mozzarella, cheddar, or a mix)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives or parsley, chopped
🔥 Method / Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
- Wash the baby potatoes thoroughly and boil them in salted water for 15–20 minutes, until fork-tender.
- Drain and let them cool slightly.
- Place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Using the bottom of a glass or a fork, gently smash each potato — just enough to flatten them but keep them whole.
Step 2: Bake or Air Fry the Potatoes
- Brush each smashed potato with melted butter and olive oil.
- Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Bake at 425°F (220°C) for 20–25 minutes, or air fry until golden and crispy.
- Sprinkle with cheese and bake another 5 minutes until melted and bubbly.
Step 3: Cook the Steak Bites
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over high heat.
- Season the steak cubes generously with salt, pepper, and herbs.
- Add steak bites in a single layer — don’t overcrowd!
- Sear for 1–2 minutes per side until browned and juicy. Remove and set aside.
- In the same pan, melt butter and add minced garlic. Sauté until fragrant.
- Return steak bites to the pan and toss them in the garlic butter for 1 minute.
- Garnish with chopped parsley.
