Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 1 pound (454 grams) sirloin steak, cut into small cubes
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Seasonings:
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt to taste
- Black pepper to taste
Dairy and Garnish:
- 6 tablespoons (85 grams) butter
- 1/2 cup (120 milliliters) milk
- 4 russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Heat a large skillet to medium-high and melt butter until it shimmers and becomes fragrant.
- Carefully add steak cubes, ensuring they are not overcrowded, and introduce minced garlic to the pan.
- Sear the meat for 2-3 minutes, turning frequently to achieve a golden-brown exterior on all sides.
- Sprinkle paprika, salt, and freshly ground black pepper evenly across the steak bites for robust seasoning.
- Meanwhile, place diced potatoes in a pot of cold water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
- Cook potatoes for 15-20 minutes until they can be easily pierced with a fork, indicating tenderness.
- Drain potatoes thoroughly in a colander, then return them to the warm pot.
- Mash the potatoes using a potato masher or ricer, gradually incorporating milk and butter until creamy and smooth.
- Transfer the silky mashed potatoes to a serving platter, creating a luxurious base for the steak bites.
- Arrange the sizzling, perfectly seasoned steak bites atop the mashed potatoes.
- Garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and herbaceous flavor.
Notes
- Choose high-quality, marbled steak cuts like ribeye or sirloin for maximum flavor and tenderness.
- Pat the steak cubes dry before cooking to ensure a perfect golden-brown sear and prevent steaming.
- Use a cast-iron skillet for superior heat distribution and creating a delicious crispy exterior on the steak.
- Customize the mashed potatoes by adding roasted garlic, sharp cheddar, or herbs like chives for extra depth.
