Ingredients

  • 1 pound flank steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • 4 medium-sized Yukon Gold potatoes, diced into 1-inch pieces
  • 1 quarter cup unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • to taste salt and pepper
  • for garnish fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until fork-tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. While the potatoes are cooking, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Once hot, add the steak bites in batches to avoid overcrowding. Season with salt and pepper. Sear for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove steak from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
  3. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and melt the butter. Add the minced garlic and thyme, cooking for about 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Add the drained potatoes to the skillet with the garlic butter. Toss well to coat the potatoes in the garlic butter mixture. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are slightly crispy and golden.
  5. Return the cooked steak bites to the skillet. Toss everything together gently, allowing the flavors to meld for another 2-3 minutes.
  6. Remove from heat, adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if desired.

💡 Chef's Notes

Serve on a large platter, garnished with freshly chopped parsley and a sprinkle of additional thyme for an elegant touch.
