  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary chopped

Method
 

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

  3. Cook the potatoes for about 10-12 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are golden brown and fork-tender.
  4. Remove the potatoes from the skillet and set aside.
  5. Cook the Steak:
  6. In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  7. Add the steak cubes, seasoning them with salt and pepper. Sear the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until they are browned and cooked to your desired doneness.

  9. Make the Garlic Butter:
  10. In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter.
