Ingredients
  

Dry Seasoning Mix
  • 3 teaspoons salt or more to taste
  • 2 teaspoons garlic powder
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
Main Components
  • 2 pounds cubed steak like sirloin, NY Strip
  • 2 pounds Yukon gold potatoes peeled and cubed into small bite-sized pieces
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Browning sauce optional, for color
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
Garlic Herb Butter
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter softened
  • 2 tablespoons parsley chopped
  • 2 tablespoons minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
Garnish
  • 1 serving parsley
  • 1 serving red pepper flakes

Equipment

  • Small bowl
  • Large bowl
  • Large skillet

Method
 

  1. In a small bowl, mix together the salt, garlic powder, onion powder, Italian seasoning, and paprika. Divide the mixture evenly into two equal portions, then set aside.
  2. In another small bowl, mix together the softened butter with the minced garlic and fresh herbs until you combine them well. Set this aside.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the cubed beef with the Worcestershire sauce, browning sauce (if you are using it), and half of the spice mixture. Toss until the beef is evenly coated all over.
  4. Parboil the diced potatoes in boiling water for 5 to 6 minutes, just until they begin to soften. Drain the potatoes and set them aside. Once cooled, season them with the other half of the seasoning mixture and 1 tablespoon olive oil. Toss to coat all over.
  5. In a large skillet set over medium-high heat, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Once the oil is hot, sear the steak for 5 to 7 minutes until browned on all sides. Transfer the steak to a plate and set it aside. In the same skillet, add the parboiled potatoes and cook over medium-high heat for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden and fork-tender.
  6. Add the steak back to the skillet with the potatoes, then stir in the garlic herb butter. Toss everything together, making sure the steak and potatoes absorb all the buttery flavor. Garnish with red pepper flakes and parsley before serving.
