Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes
Ingredients
For the Steak:
2 ribeye, sirloin, or strip steaks (about 1–1.5 inches thick)
2 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic (minced or smashed)
1 tsp fresh rosemary (or thyme, chopped)
1 tsp salt
½ tsp black pepper
For the Potatoes:
1 lb (450 g) baby potatoes (halved)
2 tbsp olive oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp Italian seasoning (or dried rosemary/thyme)
½ tsp smoked paprika (optional)
Salt & black pepper to taste
1 tbsp unsalted butter
For Garnish (optional):
Fresh parsley, chopped
Extra garlic butter drizzle
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Potatoes
Wash and halve the baby potatoes.
In a large skillet or pan, heat 2 tbsp olive oil and 1 tbsp butter over medium heat.
Add garlic and sauté 30 seconds until fragrant.
Toss in potatoes, Italian seasoning, paprika, salt, and pepper.
Cook for 15–20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are golden and fork-tender. Remove from pan and keep warm.
Step 2: Cook the Steaks
Pat steaks dry with paper towels (helps with searing).
Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
In the same skillet, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat until hot.
Place steaks in the skillet and sear 3–4 minutes per side (for medium-rare; adjust to preferred doneness).
Reduce heat to medium, add 2 tbsp butter, garlic, and rosemary/thyme.
Tilt the pan slightly and spoon the melted garlic butter over the steaks for 1–2 minutes.
Step 3: Combine & Serve
Return the cooked potatoes to the skillet alongside the steaks.
Toss gently in the garlic butter sauce.
Garnish with chopped parsley.
Serve hot with extra garlic butter drizzled over the top.
Tips
Let steaks rest 5 minutes before slicing to keep them juicy.
For extra flavor, marinate steaks in olive oil, garlic, and herbs for 30 minutes before cooking.
You can also roast the potatoes in the oven (400°F / 200°C for 25 minutes) while cooking the steaks on the stove.
