Description
Juicy beef bites seared to perfection and tossed with crisp potatoes in a rich garlic butter sauce.
Ingredients
Scale
- 680 g (1.5 lb) beef chuck or sirloin, cut into 2–3 cm (3/4–1 in) cubes
- 600 g (1.3 lb) Yukon or red potatoes, cut into 2 cm (3/4 in) cubes
- 60 g (4 tbsp) unsalted butter
- 2 tbsp (30 ml) neutral oil
- 6 cloves garlic, smashed
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) fresh lemon juice
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- Optional: 1 tsp smoked paprika or 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes
Instructions
- Pat beef cubes dry and season with salt and pepper. Toss potatoes with oil and salt.
- Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high until shimmering, then add potatoes. Cook, stirring, for 8–10 minutes until edges brown and centers are tender. Remove potatoes.
- Add more oil to the skillet and sear beef until brown on all sides, about 6–8 minutes.
- Push beef to one side, add butter and garlic to the empty space. Cook until garlic is fragrant and butter browns lightly, about 2 minutes.
- Return potatoes to pan, stir to coat with butter, and cook for 2–3 minutes. Add lemon juice and parsley, taste, and adjust salt. Serve warm.
Notes
For a dairy-free option, replace butter with ghee or olive oil. Par-cook the potatoes ahead and refrigerate.
