Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prep Potatoes: Wash and quarter the baby potatoes. Boil in salted water for 12–15 minutes until fork-tender. Drain and cool slightly. Smash each potato gently to form rough edges.
  2. Cook Steak: Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Dry the steak bites with paper towels, season with salt and pepper. Add olive oil and sear steak bites for 2–3 minutes per side until golden-brown. Remove and set aside.
  3. Crisp Potatoes: In the same skillet, add more olive oil if needed and arrange smashed potatoes cut side down. Cook for 4–5 minutes until golden and crispy. Turn and cook for another 4–5 minutes.
  4. Make Garlic Butter: Reduce heat to medium-low, add butter to melt. Once melted, add minced garlic; stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle in thyme and rosemary.
  5. Combine & Serve: Return steak bites to skillet, toss in garlic butter. Add crispy potatoes, mix well. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper, garnish with parsley before serving.
