Ingredients

Scale
  • ¼ cup ghee or butter, divided
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes, cut into ½ inch cubes
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt, plus more to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper, plus more to taste
  • 1 ¼ lb sirloin steak, cut into ½ inch cubes

Instructions

  • Prep: Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and two tablespoons of the ghee to the pan.

  • Cook the potatoes: Once the ghee is melted, add the potatoes and sprinkle the garlic, thyme, oregano, salt, and pepper over top. Cook for 2-3 minutes before stirring. Continue cooking until golden brown and fork-tender, about 8-10 minutes, stirring every 1-2 minutes. (Note: Cooking time may be longer if the pan is crowded or potato pieces are larger.) Remove the potatoes and browned bits from the pan and set aside.

  • Sear the steak: Increase the heat to medium-high and add the remaining two tablespoons of ghee to the pan. Once melted, add the steak pieces and season with a dash of salt and pepper. Cook for at least 2 minutes before stirring to allow a good sear. Continue cooking until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.

 

  • Combine: Add the potatoes back to the pan and stir to combine. Adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed. Top with freshly chopped parsley. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • You can use other small potato varieties in this recipe, including yellow, red, or fingerling potatoes.

  • Cut the potatoes small and evenly for quicker cooking.

 

  • Fight the urge to stir the meat too early—let them sear properly before stirring.
