### Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes Skillet Recipe
#### Ingredients:
– **For the steak and potatoes:**
– 1 lb (450g) sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
– 1 lb (450g) baby potatoes, halved or quartered if large
– 2 tablespoons olive oil
– 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
– 4 cloves garlic, minced
– 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
– 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped (or 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary)
– Salt and black pepper to taste
– Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish
– **Optional ingredients:**
– Red pepper flakes for a bit of heat
– Grated Parmesan cheese for garnish
#### Instructions:
1. **Prepare the potatoes:**
– In a large pot of salted boiling water, cook the potatoes until just tender, about 8-10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
2. **Cook the steak:**
– Season the steak cubes with salt and black pepper.
– In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat the olive oil. Add the steak and sear until browned on all sides and cooked to your desired doneness (about 2-3 minutes per side for medium-rare). Remove the steak from the skillet and set aside.
3. **Cook the potatoes:**
– In the same skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
– Add the cooked potatoes to the skillet, season with salt, black pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Cook until the potatoes are golden and crispy, about 4-5 minutes.
4. **Combine and serve:**
– Return the steak to the skillet. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter and toss to coat everything evenly. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until everything is heated through.
– Garnish with chopped parsley (and optional red pepper flakes and Parmesan cheese if using).
– Serve immediately.
