🧂 Ingredients

For the Garlic Butter:

  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme or rosemary, chopped
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

For the Steak and Potatoes:

  • 1½ pounds sirloin or ribeye steak, cut into 1½-inch cubes (or use whole steaks if preferred)
  • 1½ pounds baby potatoes, halved
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

🍳 Directions

  1. Preheat the Oven:
    Set your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large sheet pan with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
  2. Prepare the Potatoes:
    In a large bowl, toss the halved baby potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on the sheet pan and roast for 20 minutes, or until they start to soften.
  3. Add the Steak:
    While the potatoes roast, prepare the garlic butter by mixing melted butter, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
    Remove the pan from the oven and push the potatoes to one side. Add the steak pieces to the other half of the pan, drizzle everything generously with the garlic butter mixture, and toss gently to coat.
  4. Roast Together:
    Return the pan to the oven and roast for another 10–12 minutes, depending on your preferred steak doneness. For medium, aim for 135°F (57°C) internal temperature.
  5. Broil for a Golden Finish (Optional):
    For an extra crispy, caramelized touch, broil the steak and potatoes for 2–3 minutes — just until beautifully browned.
  6. Garnish and Serve:
    Remove from oven, spoon a little extra melted garlic butter over the steak, and sprinkle with fresh parsley. Serve immediately.

🍽️ Serving Ideas

This dish stands strong on its own, but you can easily round it out with a side salad, roasted vegetables, or even some crusty bread to soak up that incredible garlic butter sauce.

Pair with a glass of red wine or a cold beer, and you’ve got yourself the ultimate comfort dinner.


💡 Tips for Perfect Results

  • Choose the right cut: Sirloin, ribeye, or strip steak work best — tender and flavorful.
  • Don’t overcrowd the pan: Give your steak and potatoes space to roast properly and get those crispy edges.
  • Use real butter: It makes all the difference in that rich, garlicky flavor.
  • Timing is key: Start with the potatoes since they take longer — then add steak halfway through for perfect doneness.
