  • Cuisine: American

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 lbs sirloin steak or beef tenderloin, cut into bite-sized cubes
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp butter (for beef)
  • 3–4 garlic cloves, minced
  • Fresh parsley or thyme, for garnish (optional)
  • 2 lbs Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream or milk
  • 4 tbsp butter (for mashed potatoes)
  • Salt and pepper, to taste (for mashed potatoes)

Instructions

  1. Peel and cut potatoes into chunks. Boil in salted water for 15–20 minutes until fork-tender.
  2. While potatoes cook, season beef cubes with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear beef in batches until a crust forms, about 2–3 minutes per side. Avoid overcrowding.
  4. Remove beef and reduce heat. Add butter to the skillet, stir in garlic, and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
  5. Return beef to skillet and toss to coat in garlic butter. Remove from heat and set aside.
  6. Drain potatoes and mash with butter and cream until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve garlic butter beef bites over mashed potatoes. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.

Notes

  • Use ribeye or strip steak as alternatives for the beef.
  • Add mushrooms to the garlic butter for an earthy twist.
  • For richer mashed potatoes, use half-and-half or add cream cheese.
  • Substitute cauliflower mash for a low-carb version.
  • Reheat beef in a skillet with butter to maintain tenderness; reheat mashed potatoes with a splash of milk.
