Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes Skillet






Garlic Butter Steak and Potatoes Skillet








The steak and the garlic butter potatoes are seared and cooked to perfection and garnished with a herb and garlic butter compound. It is the best steak I have ever had !!

Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2-4 pounds baby potatoes, diced
  • 1 teaspoon dried Italian herb blend
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh parsley
  • garlic powder to taste
  • 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
  • 2-4 petite steaks 
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2-6 tablespoons salted butter, soft enough to mash with a fork one tablespoon per steak, plus two tablespoons for the potatoes

Instructions

First, preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a small bowl, combine the butter, garlic and dried herbs and set aside. Generously season the steaks with salt, pepper and garlic powder on both sides.

Then, place the pan on medium-high heat and drizzle with oil. Sear steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer to a plate and set aside.

Add the potatoes to the pan, season generously with salt, pepper and garlic powder and sauté for 3 to 5 minutes until golden. Push the potatoes on one side of the pan and put the steaks back on the other side of the pan.

Transfer to the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes until the potatoes are fork-tender and the steak is cooked according to your preferred cooking.

Immediately after removing from the oven, place a spoonful of garlic butter on each steak and the rest on the potatoes and let melt on the food before stirring the potatoes to coat with butter, then garnish with thyme and chopped parsley before serving.

Happy Cooking Time.
