How to Make Garlic Steak Bites with Potatoes

Ingredients:

• 1 pound sliced Yukon gold potatoes (cut into ½-inch pieces)
• ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
• salt (to taste)
• ground black pepper (to taste)
• 1 ¼ pound sirloin steak (cut into 1-inch pieces)
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme

Tips to Make Garlic Steak Bites with Potatoes

• Use fresh herbs for the best flavor.
• Make sure not to overcrowd the skillet when searing the steak. This helps it brown better.

Variation

You can substitute the sirloin steak with chicken or shrimp for a different protein. Additionally, adding different vegetables like bell peppers or asparagus can add color and nutrition to the dish.

FAQs

   • Yes, while Yukon gold potatoes are recommended for their texture and flavor, you can use any type of potatoes you prefer.

2. How do I know when the steak is cooked properly?
