Method
 

How to Make Steak Bites with Smashed Potatoes
  1. Begin by cutting the sirloin steak into bite-sized pieces. This ensures quick cooking and allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers.
  3. Generously season the steak pieces with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add the seasoned steak bites to the hot skillet. Cook until browned and cooked to your liking, about 8-10 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  5. While the steak is cooking, fill a pot with water, place the baby potatoes inside, and bring them to a boil. Cook until fork-tender, about 15 minutes, then drain.
  6. Gently smash the boiled potatoes with a fork after draining.
  7. Melt the butter in a separate pan over medium heat, then add the smashed potatoes. Season with salt, pepper, and fresh herbs.
  8. Cook the smashed potatoes in the butter until golden and crispy, about 5-7 minutes.
