Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb sirloin steak
- 2 cups baby potatoes
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Begin by preparing all your ingredients. Rinse the baby potatoes under cold water to remove any dirt. Pat them dry with a paper towel.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This will ensure the potatoes cook evenly and become crispy.
- In a medium-sized pot, add the baby potatoes and cover them with water. Add a pinch of salt. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to medium and let the potatoes simmer for about 10 minutes, or until they are fork-tender but not falling apart. Drain the potatoes and set them aside to cool slightly.
- While the potatoes are cooking, prepare the sirloin steak. Pat the steak dry with paper towels and season both sides generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the sirloin steak to the skillet. Sear the steak for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer it more well-done. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness (130°F for medium-rare).
- Once cooked to your desired doneness, remove the steak from the skillet and let it rest on a cutting board for about 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.
- While the steak is resting, return to the baby potatoes. In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil. Add the drained potatoes and toss them in the oil. Season with additional salt and pepper to taste.
- Cook the potatoes in the skillet for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- After the steak has rested, slice it into bite-sized pieces against the grain.
- To serve, place a generous portion of the crispy potato bites on each plate. Top with the sliced sirloin steak. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.
- Enjoy your Sirloin Steak Potato Bites hot, and feel free to pair them with your favorite dipping sauce or a side salad!
Tips
- Choose the Right Cut: For the best flavor and tenderness, select a high-quality sirloin steak. Look for marbling, which adds juiciness and taste.
- Rest Your Steak: After cooking, always let your steak rest for at least 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, ensuring each bite is succulent.
- Crispy Potatoes: To achieve that perfect crispy exterior on your baby potatoes, make sure they are well-drained after boiling and tossed in hot oil before frying.
- Season Generously: Don’t be shy with the salt and pepper! Proper seasoning is key to bringing out the flavors of both the steak and potatoes.
- Experiment with Herbs: While fresh parsley adds a lovely touch, feel free to experiment with other herbs like rosemary or thyme for an extra flavor boost.
- Serve with Dipping Sauces: Elevate your dish even further by serving it with a side of your favorite dipping sauce, such as a garlic aioli or chimichurri.
- Pair with a Salad: For a complete meal, serve your Sirloin Steak Potato Bites with a fresh side salad to balance the richness of the dish.
